# Health

Physical and mental health. Encompasses cycling training, gym work, nutrition, sleep, and recovery.

## Scope

- **Cycling** — the primary sport, including structured training blocks, gran fondos, and the long-term goal of riding the Stelvio
- **Strength training** — gym sessions focused on functional strength and injury prevention
- **Nutrition** — fueling for performance and general health, cooking as a creative outlet
- **Sleep & recovery** — tracking resting heart rate, prioritizing sleep duration, managing training load
- **Mental health** — recognizing burnout patterns, maintaining boundaries between work and rest

## Why this area matters

Health is the foundation everything else is built on. Consistent training and sleep directly correlate with better creative output, clearer thinking, and more sustainable work habits. The [[evergreen/training-load-and-knowledge-work]] connection is real and measurable.

## Key measures

- [[measure-resting-hr]] — proxy for overall cardiovascular fitness and recovery status
- [[measure-cycling-km-per-month]] — volume indicator for training consistency

## Cadence

Weekly training reviews via [[procedure-weekly-cycling-block]]. Monthly health check via [[procedure-monthly-health-review]]. Daily gym or ride tracked as events.
