Hello,  
I started doing beginner template about 5 months ago. During the second week of Phase 3, I got tested positive for covid-19 and stopped going to the gym. Then, I started doing at home template for 7 weeks. It will end up soon. I, however, don’t know if I continue to beginner template from the start of Phase 3 or Phase 1.  
Would you help me  
Thank you
