I'll do a follow-up post after collecting additional data with increased ventilation with manual symptom/mood tracking and wearables. Very curious to see how significant the change will be. [4/4]

It's too early to really see if this is making a significant difference in my sleep or mental performance, but the indoor levels were definitely above the recommended range and I was experiencing some of the symptoms of CO2 exposure (bad sleep, mild headaches, fatigue). [3/4]

I made some immediate changes yesterday which seem to have stabilized the CO2 levels between 600 and 800ppm: - Opened windows until indoor value fell to 600ppm (outdoor is ~420ppm) - Kept hood fan in kitchen and bathroom fan on - Left bedroom window slightly open overnight [2/4]

Just got an indoor CO2 monitor, I was shocked to find the values fluctuated between 1000 and 2000ppm (peaking overnight in my bedroom, which has quite poor ventilation). Recommended is below 1000ppm, high levels can cause impaired mental performance and sleep quality. [1/4]

In the biohacking space, we talk a lot about interventions like supplements, movement, and tech gadgets, but sometimes making a significant change that brings you more in alignment with your passions can have big downstream effects on health. [3/4]

• 81% decrease in procrastination • 96% decrease in guilt • 39% increase in creativity • more time to work out • lower injury rate because of having time for rehab/pre-hab [2/4]

I recently celebrated my 1 year anniversary of self-employment building the @ReflectTracking app. I took this as an opportunity to review what changed in my life during this time. Some highlights: • 41% decrease in stress • 43% decrease in inability to concentrate [1/4]

The program I followed was by @E3Rehab:

After some recurring neck issues exacerbated by Brazilian Jiu Jitsu training, I experimented with a brief daily neck PT program with good results: https://t.co/BjMopvxkOS

A follow-up blog post examining 6 years of meditation data, exploring the impact on mood, sleep and recovery. https://t.co/kjyalskmyg

Mood was manually tracked with the @ReflectTracking app, which I also used to set up the experiment and analyze the results.

Here's how meditating more impacted my mood.

I ran a 204 day long experiment with a random schedule where I meditated either 15 or 30 minutes per day. I found it improved my sleep, and impacted my mood in ways I didn’t anticipate. https://t.co/OoPiZ28m2X

Metric Fixation: the belief that it is possible and desirable to replace judgment, acquired by personal experience and talent, with numerical indicators of comparative performance based upon standardized data (metrics) https://t.co/lrFqfNeGtB

I ran a 160 day long experiment with the @ReflectTracking app where I alternated phases of eating 50g of cheese/day for three days, and abstaining from cheese for three days. Here's what I found: https://t.co/qEhoLq0I8j

Workout Metrics: Manual tracking showed 54% more sparring time, 12% lower RPE. Whoop data revealed unexpected results: Contradictions to predictions and research. Increased intensity in heart rate zones, calorie expenditure, and workout duration.

Findings: Significant subjective decrease in sleepiness (84%), fatigue (43%), increase in drive (4.4%), focus (3.5%), relaxation (6.1%)
