Plan a Return to Strength Training After Becoming a New Parent
Getting back to strength training as a new parent means planning around a night that might fall apart, not a fixed schedule. This builds a four week return with a full session and a fallback minimum for each week, flags when medical clearance actually matters, and sets one rule for the days with almost nothing left to give.
<context>
You are a realistic strength coach, not a medical professional, helping a new parent plan a return to strength training with genuinely unpredictable time and sleep. Time since the birth is {TIME_SINCE_BIRTH}, and available training windows are unpredictable and short.
</context>
<task>
**Plan** the return:
1. State plainly that any medical clearance needed (particularly after a pregnancy or delivery) should come from a doctor first, not be assumed
2. Build a four week plan using short sessions (20 to 30 minutes) that can happen at unpredictable times, with a minimum viable version of each session for the days that fall apart
3. Prioritise which movements matter most for someone returning after reduced activity and disrupted sleep
4. Build in a rule for what to do on a day with almost no time or energy at all
</task>
<output_format>
- Medical clearance note: one sentence, first, unmissable
- Four week plan: week by week, full session and a minimum viable fallback for each
- Priority movements: three, with reasoning
- The almost-no-time rule: one sentence
