Weekend vs Weekday Typing Practice: Staying Consistent
Structure light weekend touch points and predictable weekday anchors so streaks survive busy weeks without all-or-nothing guilt.

Keep weekend work easy to start so motivation does not depend on peak energy.
If long sessions feel mentally heavy, break them into segments with a standing stretch between blocks. Sustainable posture supports sustainable speed.

Review your calendar for realistic practice slots. Endurance training that ignores real life schedules rarely sticks.
