Regulation technique for Hyrox Performance

I have seen and heard more and more people implementing regulation technique ahead of a competition, such as breathwork post session, redlight for recovery and even vizualisation. Curious if anyone do this and have heard on any specific habits useful to get ready on D-day.

Thinking of stopping Whoop not sure I’m making the right decisions with it

Hey,

Genuine question for Whoop users:

You get recovery, HRV, sleep, strain…
but do you actually change your day based on it?

eg: if low recovery : do you really adjust training or just push through? or high recovery → do you go harder or keep the same plan? should i take 1,2 days rest, active recovery ..,etc

I’ve noticed it’s easy to look at the data, but harder to turn it into clear actions, Im struggling to know if i make the right choice and that's why I'm considering stopping it.

Turning wearable data into simple daily actions does this make sense?

Hey,

I’m building a small app around a simple idea:

Wearables (Oura, Whoop, etc.) give a lot of data,
but not much help deciding what to do next.

So instead of tracking, the app suggests actions based on your state:

  • low recovery → reset (breathing / walk)
  • high readiness → quick workout
  • mental fatigue → focus or break

MVP is very simple: routine + timer + basic history.

The real challenge is turning messy data (HRV, sleep, subjective input) into something simple and reliable, without overcomplicating it.

Curious:

  • does this actually solve a real need for you?
  • how much “adaptation” would you want vs keeping it predictable?
  • for those who’ve built apps: anything tricky about this kind of logic?

Appreciate any thoughts/feedback

Stopped using my phone 1h before bed… falling asleep way faster. Placebo or real?

I’ve been testing no phone / laptop 1 hour before bed.

I didn’t change anything else: same schedule, same routine and I do fall asleep faster.

I already know about blue light, stimulation, etc., so that part isn’t surprising.

What I didn’t expect is how inconsistent it feels:

Some nights it’s easy and I don’t even think about my phone.
Other nights I get a strong urge to grab it (social media, videos…), even though I know it’s not helping.

Feels less like a “light” issue and more like a habit/craving thing depending on how my brain feels that day.

Curious if anyone else noticed that difference between “easy nights” and “craving nights”?
