> SUMMARY:

Successfully implemented the Søberg Principle protocol and established a realistic, sustainable gym routine.

> FIELD NOTES:
Hit the Søberg Principle numbers perfectly (57 mins heat, 11 mins cold weekly) with Sauna/Cold 3-4x a week and gym 2-3x a week. Taking cold showers after the sauna earlier in the day proved crucial for boosting energy and mood. Lowering the baseline gym expectation to 2x a week ahead of time was a massive win—it made the goal highly realistic and prevented mission drift. The biggest friction point was simply finding the time; without the accountability framework of this challenge, competing priorities would have easily derailed the routine. Sleep scores dipped slightly (~96%) as rigid February sleep habits were moderately loosened, but baseline resilience remained strong. Unexpected Win: Started the April diet/Blueprint parameters early, which made the monthly transition seamless.
NEXT_MISSION_INTEL

Going into April (Blueprint Protocol), the early diet transition provides strong momentum. However, expecting significant friction around conflicting family meals and a mid-month wedding. The strategy here is tactical flexibility—adapting the protocol to be realistic during those events without breaking the chain._
