4) Caffeine reliance — need >2 coffees/strong caffeinated drinks most mornings?
5) Cravings/appetite — sweets up, or evening appetite hard to satisfy?
6) Training feel — easy sessions feel hard (chat pace tough, legs heavy) >2× this week?
7) Aches & fixes — leaning on anti-inflammatories or more physio/massage to stay afloat?
8) Immunity/health — lingering sniffles or recurring minor illnesses in the last month?
9) Weight shift — noticeable change (up or down) across 4–6 weeks without trying?
10) Mood & bandwidth — loved ones say you’re flat/irritable/absent, or “three boofheads before 11am” most days?
