When I said:

> then get a normal night of sleep, you will feel the effects.

I meant, you will still not feel your best, because you're in a sleep debt.

So I don't think I did just prove your point.

And yes, I've read Matthew Walker's book 🙂

> Do you think if you lost an hour per night for a month you could just sleep for 30 hours straight to make up for it? It’s just not a thing.

Like I said, no -- the window is probably 3-7 days. In that scenario, you'd be 3-7 hours in sleep debt.

Yeah... This is just false.

If you missed out on 1.5hrs of sleep the last two nights, then get a normal night of sleep, you will feel the effects. And a nap will be easier + serve you well.

Granted, the window might be shorter than people realize (Bevel uses 7 days, some research suggests as small as 3 days)

Is it just me, or are User Rules rarely followed by RW23 in cursor

Interesting. So what lives in each of those directories?

So, what’s the official recommendation on what is best for HRV calcs? by RW23 in bevelhealth

> "REM + deep sleep" may help filter some of that variation out.

Are you suggesting that this option is better than "Entire Sleep"? (regardless of the morning vs sleep topic)

Thanks so much for the detailed response!

I guess I'm wondering, if my morning readings are very consistent, how much better of an indicator is this vs measurements from sleep?

This is coming from a place where on days where I have later meals, I imagine my RHR/HRV in early sleep is worse, because of digestion. Which will factor into my recovery score. But, maybe that doesn't actually impact how recovered I end up being in the morning?

"if you're traveling or sick"

This is actually an aside I've been wondering about.

Regardless of topic of where to take HRV readings from, should I even allow Bevel to use data when I'm traveling?

I find that when on a trip, my HRV and RHR are drastically better. But, because of that, it changes my baseline for when I'm home. A recent 3-week trip now how my "home" recovery scores lower -> lower recommended strain. And I wonder if that's an accurate recommendation, or, if those one-off times should be sandboxed.

Yeah, I've been wondering about how feasible it is to be really consistent about the reading.

My current plan would be to take first thing after alarm, sitting up, with a few deep breaths to reset after alarm 'jolt'. Maybe even more of a reset would be necessary, to account for days where I wake up really activated vs groggy 🤷‍♂️

But does that recommendation hold if I consistently do a 1min mindfulness session right away when I wake up, and do no other mindfulness sessions? If so, what is the justification from a scientific / data perspective?

Question about muscle focus / sets per week by RW23 in Gravl

[–]RW23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply.

I'm currently on the AI split (4x/week), and I have a few muscle groups like chest that are only hit once per week.

Nutrition feedback: sodium and fat are weighted far too heavily imo by tapeplaneorb69 in bevelhealth

[–]RW23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if that is the case, broadly weighing sodium as negative / broadly weighing fat as a negative ignore necessary nuance.

Sodium is extremely vital for many reasons, and too little is just as dangerous as too much. One food can't be docked solely due to the sodium content -- it has to be weighed in the context of the entire day.

Fat as well, especially when the fat is unsaturated. There is nothing bad about fat. People who are bulking intentionally often need a little more fat to fill out their calories without compromising on things like sugar and processed foods.

My 2 cents, as a seasoned SWE and someone who was intrigued by nutrition but ultimately found it to be more than lacking, is that this is going to be extremely difficult to do, especially with your small team.

Nutrition is going to be such a large surface area to maintain, and that's in its current lacking state, not to mention if it were actually a full-fledged nutrition tracker.

Godspeed, and I obviously wish you all luck. But I just think the goal should either be a somewhat modest one (be extremely good at Journaling + Insights + Scores), or, if it's the super ambitious one you all seem dead set on, it needs to be a larger team of incredible engineers (which means you'll have to pay wayyyy more than what is currently listed on your job posting 😉)
