A proposito di questo titolo

Rob and Stephan dive into the "deep sleep problem" of the Apple Watch, share their personal motivations for long-term self-quantification, and provide a science-heavy look at why creatine is one of the most underappreciated supplements in medicine.📝SummaryIn this episode, Rob addresses the controversy surrounding Apple Watch sleep staging based on a recent study comparing wearables to polysomnography, explaining why the device often underestimates deep sleep stages while remaining a top-tier consumer tool. The hosts explore the "why" behind their data-driven lifestyles, with Rob detailing his unique multi-year deep-phenotyping research and Stephan describing the psychological benefits of leveraging the Hawthorne effect for behavioral change. Finally, they provide a comprehensive breakdown of creatine supplementation, addressing medical misconceptions about kidney health, while also highlighting emerging research on creatine’s cognitive benefits.⏳Chapters00:02:00 The Sleep Study: Comparing Apple Watch to the Gold Standard00:12:41 Staging Accuracy: Pattern Recognition and Consistency Preferences00:17:15 Battery vs. Precision: Why Apple Limits Sensor Input00:24:20 Evolving Models: Firstbeat, Garmin, and Machine Learning on the Edge00:29:48 Why We Track: Rob’s Multi-Year Deep Phenotyping Research00:38:29 Finding the Niche: From Science Communication to YouTube00:44:17 Daily Routines: When and How to Check Your Data00:50:52 Healthy Limits: Preventing Tracking-Induced Anxiety00:56:48 Creatine and Kidney Health: Addressing Doctor Concerns00:57:50 Informed Discussions: How to Present Data to Medical Professionals01:08:18 Cellular Energy: Creatine’s Role in ATP Production01:13:04 Brain Health: Creatine for Sleep Deprivation and Neuroprotection01:19:32 Personal Risk Analysis: Hair Loss, Finasteride, and Trade-offs01:28:03 Soleus Muscle Correction and Smartwatch Histories📚ResourcesRob's sleep study preprint: https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/27wun_v1 Apple sleep staging paper: https://www.apple.com/health/pdf/Estimating_Sleep_Stages_from_Apple_Watch_Oct_2025.pdf Quantization in AI: https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.08295 Oura technical support confirmed that Oura's sleep staging is processed offline by the Oura App, which runs the complete sleep staging pipeline using the physiological signals shared by the ring, regardless of internet connection.Simon Sinek's Start with Why: https://youtu.be/u4ZoJKF_VuA EXG Glossary: EEG (Electroencephalogram), EOG (Electrooculogram), ECG (Electrocardiogram), EMG (Electromyogram)Supplement research database: https://examine.com Goodhart's Law: When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure.Kidney physiology: https://youtu.be/l128tW1H5a8 Stephan's Creatine page: https://stephanreichl.notion.site/Creatine-117301f67e4c80fcbce8e9f489aad9c9 Hypertrophy (size) vs hyperplasia (numbers): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/5917072/ Fidgeting (NEAT) study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11101470/ 🎙️AboutFit For Science is a deep-dive podcast hosted by two biological data scientists, Rob and Stephan, exploring the intersection of research, health tech, and data-driven lifestyle design.
