I wouldn’t recommend it. I like to keep a neutral spine and neck position

It’s not detrimental if you’re not a competitor, but I wouldn’t consider it ideal either.
At the end of the day it’s what you want to prioritize most.. what’s most convenient for you, or what elicits the most progressTBJP Nutrition: Michaela10

JP summed it up here.
But the way I like to start someone out is have a general idea of what they’re current intake is even if you don’t know the macros but make an estimate off the foods, and if you’ve been gaining/losing/maintaining on that, and then base the new macros off of that toward the goal ahead

Ahh idk man, I like warm ups to be used as primers and building up into that work set weight. You don’t have to take big rests between the warm ups.

You just start with an amount and see how you respond with progress. Going from zero id start 25-30 min 4-5x/week, I personally prefer fasted but whenever is convenient for you consistently

Pretty much anything blendable that matches the macro needs for that meal lol
For me it would be rice flour, almond butter, banana, whey isolate – or in your case with nut allergy coconut oil

45-60 min if fine with me, especially if having an intra drink with EAAs and carbs.
If you’re wanting to eat sooner just for schedule then why not just pack it with you?TBJP Nutrition: Michaela10

Sounds like you’re very aware and intuitive! You were able to try something, see what happens, and realize maybe it wasn’t the best call. It’s all data collection and you’re able to answer your own question! Do the amount you can recover from and live to see another day to do it again!

Is your water, sodium, food sources, sleep and wake up time all consistent?

The good thing is you’re aware of it. Use it toward your benefit instead of thinking of it as a negative. It’s easy to tell you not to overthink it, but I know that’s not as easily done. So use that overthinking as a positive and put it into your sets, once the set is over don’t think about it again until next week

What’s sleep and diet like?
If you’re not recovering you’re not recovering, you’ll have lack of progress from not recovering not by pulling back to recover better.
If diet, sleep, hydration are good then change the training. Just try pulling back and see what happensTBJP Nutrition: Michaela10

That amount of time is irrelevant. All that matters in that case is that you are digesting each meal well

I don’t change anything until/if I have to. I treat training exactly the same, and if there comes a point of recovery declining I adjust volume, but never effort

Don’t stress it. Sometimes an involuntary break can work toward your benefit. Go back into training fresh, take the first week gradual, and by the next week you’ll be like you didn’t miss a beat
