Agreed with MazdaMatt's training ADHD diagnosis. I'm personally a fan of going off program if there's a good reason, but for you and your girlfriend, you'll get better results if you just do the program correctly. That includes weightlifting shoes (if you can afford a home setup, you can get these), keeping a log (in real time!) so you don't forget what rep and set you're on (and also so you don't, I dunno, accidentally add 25 lbs to the bar when it should be 5), resisting the temptation to do extra sets, resisting the temptation to lift on days off (at least it sounds like you can get this one right), avoiding pyramid rep schemes. Too bad about the broken toe though, that one's unfortunate and not necessarily your fault. Also understandable that real life can be crazy, but gaining discipline with regards to your training is part of the deal.
