Finish the rep

See it done, then go.

The wrestler before the state meet and the founder before the pitch. Same mechanism.

Not medical, diagnostic or therapeutic. No outcome is promised. This is self-direction and rehearsal, which is old, plain and enough.

WHY THIS ONE EXISTS

See it done, then go.

Mental rehearsal is the oldest use of this method and the least mystical one: athletes have run the movement in their heads before running it with their bodies for as long as anyone has been coaching. These eight lines are written for the minute before you start, and the tenth minute after you wanted to stop.

How to use it

Warm-up. On the bus. In the hallway outside the room.

THE COMPLETE SCRIPT / 8 LINES

Every word
in the recording.

Read it before you listen.
Nothing else is in the file.

  1. 01I start before I feel ready.
  2. 02I finish the rep I said I would finish.
  3. 03I do the last ten percent.
  4. 04I see it done before I begin.
  5. 05I rehearse it clean, then I go.
  6. 06Tired is a feeling, not an instruction.
  7. 07I keep going when it stops being interesting.
  8. 08I am the person who finishes.

The carried intro at the top of the file names this programme and says that these eight lines are all that follows. If you ever hear a word in a SyncFocus recording that is not on its page, that is a defect and we want to know.

THE LAYER STACK

Five layers.
Published levels.

Produced deliberately, not generated carelessly. Levels are peak ceilings against full scale, and they are the numbers the build script actually uses.

How the method works
  1. 01 / Carried intro

    Spoken plainly at full level, peaking at −3 dBFS. It names the programme and says out loud that the eight lines coming are the eight lines printed on this page.

  2. 02 / Tonal bed

    A 87.3 Hz root with its fifth, octave and twelfth, plus a distant pulse on the half-root. Synthesised from scratch, ceiling −14 dBFS. No sample, no library, no licence.

  3. 03 / Affirmation pass A

    The script, centred, peaking at −14 dBFS — the same ceiling as the bed. Speech is sparse and a sustained bed is not, so the voice sits underneath without vanishing.

  4. 04 / Affirmation pass B

    The same script again, 380 ms later at −20 dBFS, widened with the left channel leading. This is what gives the layer its depth.

  5. 05 / Echo tail

    Two taps at 190 ms · 460 ms, alternating sides, on the voice only. The bed is left dry so the echo reads as space around the words rather than reverb on the music.
