Steps yesterday: 1,544 (SmartHealth watch)

Runtastic Sleep Better app says my sleep efficiency last night was 95 percent.

Because of a decline in skeletal muscle percentage, I have added 80 steps on the stepper (20 steps, then rest, four sets) to daily cardio, as per Harvard Medical report on strength training..

I have several Harvard Medical special reports. I have learned from them, but they are not infallible. The strength training report recommends Reebok adjustable barbells, which Reebok no longer sells. Amazon reviewers report narrowly escaping serious injury from using similar versions which are still being sold.

Decided not to weigh myself on the EatSmart scale yesterday... maybe today.

Today is my first stab at making hummus from scratch. Soaked chickpeas and cooked them in the Crock Pot overnight.

Tip: just two hours of walking every week cuts your chances of a cardiovascular event by 50 percent (Harvard Medical)

Does the result on the sleep tracker reflecte with accuracy the way you feel in the morning. Lets says it says you've had 94% favorable sleep, can you confirm that you do feel energetic. ? Just curious

I've only used it for three nights so I don't have much of a baseline to work with. I would imagine useful patterns would emerge after a while. It also shows what percent is spent in awake, light sleep, deep sleep. There's no FAQ, but it's $2 in the paid version. Dedicated sleep trackers around $100 and up.

Well, I don't know. But to me if you're tracker report 94% favorable sleep, you must feel well, and if it report 10 % favorable sleep, you must feel lousy. I don't understand the need for a baseline. Anyway, the important thing is that you understand it workings.
