Great plan so yeah if 20 minutes feels like a lot at first start with 10–15 and bump time or reps by about 10% weekly while keeping the walk at a pace where you can chat easily. Use the highest incline needed for push-ups (wall or sturdy desk) and adopt a “never miss twice” rule; if you feel beat up, hold steady or take a deload week every 3–4 weeks. Sprinkle 1–2 minute mobility breaks during the workday so the weekend session isn’t doing all the heavy lifting.

Neighbor across from me can monologue for forty minutes. I use the carry and walk method and keys visible, bag in hand, 'I have to get this in before it spoils, good to see you,' and I move. The ice storm that year taught me lingering means wasted food and lost time.

City parent in a third floor walkup. A true one hand fold means you can close and open it while your other arm is busy and and it locks itself so you can grab the frame and go which, yeah in a store I keep one hand behind my back, fold it in a single motion, then lift and walk the length of the aisle. If it tilts weirdly or bites your fingers, pass. Make sure it stands on its own when folded so you can set it down without it flopping over. Try opening it with one hand too, some make you fumble a second latch and that ruins the flow. Take it to a corner and do a few pretend curb hops with it folded to see how it balances in your hand. If you feel strain after a minute, it is not light enough for regular stairs. Works one handed.
