Procedure
- Assess Baseline and Equipment: Determine the user's available equipment and current strength levels using
get_user_preferencesandget_user_historyto ensure appropriate compound movement selection. - Structure the "Posture-First" Warm-up: Dedicate the first 3 minutes to dynamic mobility. Use
add_exerciseto include:- Thoracic spine rotations.
- Cat-cow transitions.
- Activation for postural muscles (e.g., glute bridges or bird-dogs).
- Design the High-Density Circuit: Create a 15-minute main block using a Hybrid High-Intensity Resistance Training (HIRT) model with
create_workout.- Movement Selection: Use
find_exercise_candidatesto select exercises that provide multi-goal synergy:- Posture & Hypertrophy: Prioritize a 2:1 pulling-to-pushing ratio (Rows, Face Pulls).
- Hypertrophy & Core: Movement patterns like Goblet Squats or Overhead Presses.
- Core Strength: Focus on anti-rotation/anti-extension (Plank walk-outs, Deadbugs).
- Weight Loss: High metabolic cost movements (Kettlebell swings, Thrusters).
- Movement Selection: Use
- Apply Peripheral Heart Action (PHA): Organize the circuit to pair upper-body movements with lower-body movements to increase cardiovascular demand and caloric expenditure.
- Set Intensity and Rest:
- Assign rest intervals between 30–60 seconds to maintain metabolic stress.
- Prescribe a Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) of 8–9 for hypertrophy movements.
- Use
compute_one_rep_maxif necessary to set initial loading based on history.
- Implement Progressive Overload: In the workout notes or via
remember, document the requirement to increase weight, increase reps, or decrease rest in subsequent sessions to prevent adaptation plateaus. - Final Review: Ensure the total duration estimate is exactly 20 minutes including the warm-up, prioritizing compound movements over isolation to maximize time density.
