1️⃣ TRAINING DRIFT = Structure → Randomness
I train inconsistently week to week
My training lacks progression or testing
I skip the hard workouts & cardio
I replace strength training with “activity”
I don’t track what I do

Score:

0–1 = Stable

2–3 = Drifting

4–5 = Significant Drift

2️⃣ NUTRITION DRIFT = Fuel → Reaction
I eat based on stress, mood, or time pressure
Protein intake is inconsistent
I snack more than I eat meals
Fast food is my GO2
I justify food with “I earned this” thinking

Score:

0–1 = Stable

2–3 = Drifting

4–5 = Significant Drift

3️⃣ RECOVERY DRIFT = Rest → Negotiation
Sleep is regularly sacrificed
Screens dominate my evenings
I wake up tired most days
I train without feeling recovered
I don’t have a wind-down / sleep routine

Score:

0–1 = Stable

2–3 = Drifting

4–5 = Significant Drift

4️⃣ IDENTITY DRIFT = Standards → Stories
I live off what I used to be capable of
I say “once things settle down” often
I avoid mirrors, scales, or testing
My self-image doesn’t match my behavior
I rely on knowledge instead of execution

Score:

0–1 = Stable

2–3 = Drifting

4–5 = Significant Drift

5️⃣ ACCOUNTABILITY DRIFT= Visibility → Isolation
No one sees my training consistently
I train alone with no check-ins
Skipped sessions have no consequence
I avoid environments that expose weakness
I justify inconsistency privately

Score:

0–1 = Stable

2–3 = Drifting

4–5 = Significant Drift

6️⃣ ATTENTION DRIFT=Focus → Distraction
I default to my phone when uncomfortable

I struggle to sit in silence
I trade effort for stimulation
I feel mentally scattered

Score:

0–1 = Stable

TOTAL DRIFT SNAPSHOT
5-9 → Moderate drift (tighten structure) You haven’t fallen apart, but you’ve softened enforcement. Some standards exist. Some have been quietly negotiated.
10–15 → Significant Drift (reset required) Drift is now compounding. Structure has become optional. Excuses feel reasonable. Effort is inconsistent.
16+→ Compound Drift (standards missing) Multiple systems are leaking at once. Training, nutrition, recovery, attention, and accountability are all compromised.

Score:

5-9 = Moderate Drift

10-15 = Significant Drift

16+ = Compound Drift
