Summary
...The few wearable metrics that actually matter — and what I ignore... Biohacking for Dummies: Wearables & Tracking breaks down the few health metrics I actually pay attention to every week — without the fluff, noise, or obsession.

This episode is for beginners, busy people, and anyone tired of turning wearable data into a full-time job. The goal is simple: use your tracker to notice trends, make smarter decisions, and improve recovery without becoming a slave to scores, stress graphs, or algorithm drama.
