You should learn physics and math by solving problems in text books. Don't expect to read the text and learn, as if you were digesting a short story or a news article, you have to learn by doing. There are physics books that a famous because they teach you how to think in physics or in mathematics, but have abridged or non-existent problem sections, I would defocus these books from your curriculum. In fact, you probably shouldn't even read the books or even watch any youtube lectures, just try and solve problems and if you don't understand the material only then consult the text/youtube.
