Daily review

July 15, 2026

Fitness and Nutrition both moved forward as daily-use systems, Job Search became a versioned operating source with a sharper application slate, and the family real-estate plan was reset around a calmer spring 2027 timeline. The day also made the next HQ question clearer: it needs to support several active projects at once without sounding like a marketing page.

What moved

Wins

  • Fitness shipped five production rounds: holistic progress tracking, activity streaks, editable sessions (including historical ones), prehab with an interleaved leg rotation, and a mobile navigation fix.
  • Nutrition shipped a daily review, streak insights, batch intake, and a weekly recipe rotation.
  • The job-search folder is now under version control, the expanded strategy got an editorial second pass, and the application slate was narrowed to better-fit priorities.
  • The morning's Fitness data audit confirmed the core ledger's integrity and narrowed the remaining history gaps to a short review list.

Morning starting point

Focus tomorrow

  1. 1.Verify Nutrition batch intake and the weekly recipe rotation on the phone now that the intake-and-rotation migration has been applied.
  2. 2.Finish the Fitness history reconciliation from the paper and partner-session notes before the next gym session, then rerun the audit.
  3. 3.Verify the scoped Real Estate family view on mobile.
  4. 4.Protect a focused Job Search block, then draft a plainer HQ purpose and copy pass that supports multiple active projects before sending it for a second editorial review.

Shipped

Fitness

  • Made progress tracking holistic: accessories, core work, mobility, and carries now count whenever they carry a meaningful progression signal, on top of the main lifts.
  • Added activity streak tracking and made sessions fully editable, including corrections to historical sessions and clearer exercise removal.
  • Added prehab tracking and interleaved the leg rotation into the program.
  • Replaced the cramped bottom navigation with a scrollable top pill row so all six tabs stay readable on a phone.

Nutrition

  • Shipped a daily nutrition review and streak insights.
  • Added batch intake (paste a day's food in one go) and a weekly recipe rotation backed by a reusable grocery library; the supporting database migration was completed before merge.

Job Search and HQ

  • Put the canonical job-search folder under version control and gave the expanded search strategy an independent editorial second pass.
  • Encoded the role-fit and location decision rules, retired a stale search track, and promoted a new priority opportunity onto the application slate, with the pipeline snapshot synced into HQ.
  • Cleared the verification queue: the remaining wide-net roles were decided against, so the pipeline now holds only right-fit applications.
  • Turned the AI FinOps study guide into a browsable reading library.

Real Estate

  • Reworked the family real-estate plan around a spring 2027 timeline.

Decisions

  • Fitness tracks all completed work with a meaningful progression signal — strength, accessories, core, mobility, and carries; a first recorded exposure is a baseline, and missing history is reconstructed only from confirmed evidence.
  • When more tabs exist than fit a bottom bar, mobile navigation standardizes on a scrollable top pill row rather than shrinking icons or hiding tabs.
  • The family move now targets spring 2027, and the plan was rebuilt around that date.
  • The job-search wide net has done its calibration job: adjacent-but-not-right roles get removed rather than lingering, and the application slate is the single list of priorities.
  • HQ should no longer imply that only one project can be active at a time; the next pass starts with purpose and copy, using straightforward operational language and keeping landing pages only where they actually improve hierarchy or planning.

Parked

  • Older pre-program and 2025 training history will be reconciled separately after the current 2026 ledger is complete.
  • HQ redesign implementation waits until the purpose and copy pass has a clearer answer to what the control panel is for.
