Decision thresholds

TriggerAction
If you’re already tired on the dayDo start with minimum plan (1 anchor activity + rest) and avoid stacking.
If symptoms increase above early-warningDo pivot to Plan B (shorter/indoor/seated) within 10 minutes.
If you need to conserve for tomorrowDo protect sleep window and cap total activity duration.
If unexpected delays happenDo use buffer: sit, hydrate, reduce tasks—do not ‘push through’.
