# 2026-07-14 (Tue) — Brandon Program Daily Log

**Day 32 of program · Week 5 Tue · TRI Tue · Thu 7/16 flight (2 days out)**

## Morning state
[to be filled by Cameron's first note]

## Whoop snapshot
- Recovery **49% 🟡** (⬇ 12 from 61% — the Mon stack compounded)
- HRV **36.5** (⬇ from 41.8 — back near week-low 35.6)
- RHR **53** (⬆ from 49 floor)
- Sleep **8.75 hrs** ✓ (finally full volume) · 81% perf · 65% consistency
- REM **83** / Deep **134** (huge deep — body actively catching up)
- **22 disturbances** ⚠️ (double normal — fragmented sleep despite volume)
- Yesterday strain **13.16** (pickleball ~50min + whatever gym happened)
- Workout Mon 7:57-8:47pm PT (pickleball)

Body story: **called it** — stacked gym + pickleball on 61% recovery = 12-point drop this morning despite 8.75hrs sleep. The volume was there; the load absorbed it. 22 disturbances says body was actively processing. Deep 134 = actual repair happening. Today's job = **give the body a break**, or Thu deadline fails.

## Practices done this morning

## Today's plan (49% yellow — hard rest day)
- ⚠️ **NO LIFT. NO PICKLEBALL. Walk only.** 
- 🏗 Robot: UMI data collection + video action model iteration (Thu deadline is real)
- 🎪 **Tue evening hike?** Brandon Week 5 HW — Rancho San Antonio at sunset. Low body cost, high presence, new experience.
- 🌟 If the hike doesn't happen → coffee shop with a book or dinner with a lab friend counts as 1hr out
- 💤 11pm bed HARD (repeat the volume, get better consistency)
