> The secret is to show up. Every day. Just keep stacking those good days.

This is just not true. The most popular beginner weight lifting programs are comprised of ~3 workouts a week of ~30-60 minutes each. There's a reason for that. Exercising every day sure sounds nice, but it increases the chance of injury and often is too great a commitment for people with a sedentary lifestyle.

> Most programs get repetitive after 6-8 weeks anyway

You can easily follow a beginner program for many months before linear progression stops. Switching programs after 6-8 weeks as a newbie is absolutely pointless when you do compound exercises.

> (It’s also much easier said than done)

Yeah, it is when you force yourself to work out every day. 3 days a week though? Far more manageable.
