When time is up: Continue according to the original plan; stop if uncomfortable rather than forcing yourself to finish the timer.

Times are for guidance. Ingredient size, starting temperature, quantity and heat affect cooking. An alarm does not mean food is safely cooked; check doneness and continue cooking if needed. Adapt movement and rest to your abilities.
