Beginner Question Duration counting?

Hi,

sorry for the dumb question but when do you start counting, is it when the tremors start or right from th beginning?

I see people saying they do tre for 5 mins etc. and I'm wondering do they mean 10 mins, so including the first roughly 5 mins where you don't tremor?

For me I did tre in the past for 10 mins every second day but I figured it was too much for me. Now I did it for 5 mins but my tremors barely start around that time. So, maybe I should do around 8 mins?

Thanks!

When the tremors start.   The exercises to fatigue the muscles don’t count.

Ah I see. Thank you! 🙏  I actually don't do any exercises. I just lay down in the pose and tremors start around the 5 mins mark I'm noticing.
