The last couple of weeks I have been riddled with ideas, thoughts and new ways of thinking. I’ve compiled a small group of testers to track a few measureable data points each day, week and month. The intention of the data is to keep track of your health and see how you progress with a consistent effort in purely keeping track.
If you think about it everyday, don’t you think you’ll hold yourself in check a bit more?
Daily Data Points
Weight
Blood Sugar (optional) – normal range is 70-110 in a fasted state or upon waking.
Resting Heart Rate – Shooting to keep heart rate around 60 beats per minute. Between 60-90 is considered normal.
Total Sleep
Heart Rate Variability – Is a little harder to capture, if you have a Samsung you can capture it with your ‘stress’ test in Samsung Health.
Level of alertness/mood upon waking (1-5) – Purely Subjective, how do you feel upon waking?
Wake up time – Maybe there is a correlation between early to rise and consistency?
Subjective food score (1-5)
Weekly Metrics
Bodyfat Percentage – 8-22% for males, 18-32% for females
Circumference measurements
Monthly Metrics
Broad Jump Distance – Jump as far as you can, measuring at the rearmost heal.
Pushups in 1 minute
Max Deadhang Chinups
400m Run
Cooper Run Test (1.5 mile run)
