Ask HN: How do you design experiments on yourself? (health, energy, learning)
How do you design, track, and measure experiments you decide to do on yourself?
Examples of experiments:
- Reduce my workouts from three 1h workouts to two 1.5h workouts.
- Start taking magnesium supplements for better sleep.
- Try intermittent fasting.
- Start writing tests first (TDD).
I wonder whether there is a good resource or your anecdote about how to try the "scientific method" on yourself. It seems that some people are better at applying it than others. I think Tim Ferris has been the main person I would think about in this context.
