Subject: RE: Health Data entries i see what your saying, a bad day where u are fatiqued and sore can be a result from the previous days hard workout... when u plot the graph of average SSSF (sleep, stress, soreness, fatigue) vs overall workout....THE THEORY (which has been proven to some extent) is that the overtraining indicators of poor sleep ratings, high fatigue, high soreness and higher stress will show up in your workouts as 'poorer' workouts...so the graph SHOULD look like a decreasing line of average SSSF correlating to a drop in overall workout. if you can spot some trends where u know if your avg SSSF reaches a bottom 'threshold' causing poor performance/sickness, u can correct it next time. BUT this means that all of yoru ratings u give have to be super consistent...so come up with a cheat sheet describing EXACTLY what a 'Stress level 1' feels like, etc...now u MAY have a chance to spot indicators of when its time to rest. This is a newer feature of the logs and i would like to go back into some peoples who have diligently kept this up and see if we can find correlations...maybe poor workouts show up a week later when your avg SSSF drops...stuff like that. |
