Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fit endurance training into a busy site-visit schedule?

Prioritize 'micro-workouts' like rucking during your site walks or using your commute for active recovery, ensuring you maintain a consistent heart rate without overtraining.

Why is protein intake high for this plan?

High protein supports muscle repair after long days of manual labor and walking, which is essential for maintaining the endurance required for field-heavy landscape architecture work.
