Skipped effort compounds too. It just grows in the wrong direction.

Compounding is usually sold as a reward, but it is a mechanism and it runs either way. Each skipped week makes the next one easier to skip and the eventual return harder, because the gap you would be climbing back over got slightly taller. Nothing dramatic happens on any given day in either direction.

Look at the thing you have been away from and cut the return down to something almost embarrassing. One page, one set, one email. The point is to flip the direction, not to make up the missed weeks.
