A proposito di questo titolo

 Rob and Stephan analyze their 2025 health data, discuss the validity of "biological age" metrics, and set systems-based goals for the coming year.📝SummaryIn this episode, biological data scientists Rob and Stephan explore how to use wearable data to review the past year and plan for a better future. They critique the "year in review" features of popular apps, debating whether these metrics provide actionable insights or merely gamified motivation. The discussion moves into the science of cardiovascular age and pulse wave velocity, highlighting how short-term exercise interventions might alter arterial stiffness markers. Reflecting on personal growth, Rob shares his transition from manual to more automated tracking for perceived happiness, while Stephan outlines a systematic "Past Year Review" framework to replace traditional New Year’s resolutions. The episode concludes with a look at 2026 technological trends, including the potential for better batteries, screenless GPS wearables, and new FDA regulatory pathways that could integrate consumer health tech into clinical practice.⏳Chapters00:00:00 Year in Review: Discussing App Recaps and Comparisons 00:07:47 Feedback Loops: How to Use Data Trends for Behavioral Change 00:24:48 Biological Age: Decoupling Marketing from Physiological Truth 00:35:15 Cardiovascular Age: Pulse Wave Velocity and Arterial Adaptation 00:48:57 The Importance of Controls: Lessons from a Cold Exposure Study 01:03:17 Nerve Health: Tracking Impact and Recovery via Smart Scales 01:06:54 Quitter’s Day vs. Systems: Why New Year’s Resolutions Fail 01:08:15 The Past Year Review: A Data-Driven Framework for Lifestyle Design01:12:26 2026 Goals: Marathons, Biking Rivalries, and Life Balance 01:21:10 Professional Focus: Cutting Out Distractions to Finish Projects01:23:54 One-Bag Travel: Reflections on Minimalist Gear and Efficiency 01:27:03 Future Wearables: GPS, Battery Tech, and FDA Regulation📚ResourcesOura 2025 year in reviewWhoop 2025 year in review"Comparison is the death of joy." - Mark TwainArthur C.
