What you usually do

suelo ir

I usually go· tap the form for the whole table

Say these out loud

Why it works

Soler + infinitive carries usually inside the verb.

In the past, solía is the cleanest way to say used to: solía ir los viernes.

Soler has no future and no preterite. Present and imperfect only.

Why not normalmente voy

normalmente voy al gimnasio los martes

I normally go to the gym on Tuesdays

Correct, but wordier. Suelo ir says the same thing in one verb, and lesson 10 gave you the other half.
