Movement Preparation Time Budgeter

Allocate a limited pre-workout preparation window across mobility, activation, balance, and warm-up components according to the chosen workout.

Direct answer: Reserve the total preparation clock, then allocate it between mobility, activation, balance, and general warm-up according to the selected workout priority.

Why this tool is useful

Preparation windows are often short enough that every component competes for the same minutes. This tool makes those trade-offs explicit.

How it works

The user assigns percentage shares to mobility, activation, balance, and general warm-up. The app converts those shares into minutes and optionally rounds them, showing any leftover time created by rounding.

Interpretation and common mistakes

Use the result as a transparent planning aid. It uses the values you enter and does not measure readiness, health status, injury risk, or individual recovery.

Keep definitions consistent when comparing sessions or weeks.
Separate user-entered assumptions from recorded measurements.
Treat flags as planning prompts, not universal limits.

Frequently asked questions

Why must the shares total 100%?

Because the tool allocates one fixed preparation window.

Can one component be zero?

Yes.

Does it tell me which component I need?

No. It allocates the mix you choose.
