Consistency

Purpose is stronger when tied to life outside the gym rather than appearance alone. Community is presented as a primary source of accountability that makes training more fun, intense, and sustainable. Warm water can optionally thin the sauce, increase its volume, and reduce its richness. Consistency is treated as the foundation of long-term fitness, but it requires adaptation rather than identical daily effort. Tracking supports adaptation by showing workout performance and informing changes to diet, supplements, and medications. Horton's long-term practice framework consists of purpose, plan, accountability, intensity, and tracking. The sauce should be removed from heat after it reaches the desired thickness. A plan means specifying what workout will be done, when, and where. The sauce is expected to thicken relatively quickly during preparation.
