how much of what we believe about interval stretching actually comes from tapering threads
Asking properly rather than in a comment on somebody else’s thread: how much of what we believe about interval stretching actually comes from tapering threads. A written baseline — dose, date, weight, waist, and how appetite feels — taken before any change is what makes the following months interpretable rather than…
Interval stretching lowers the trough concentration while keeping the dose; dose reduction lowers the level while keeping the rhythm. They are different interventions with different subjective profiles.
Agreed. Appetite is the leading indicator and the scale is the lagging one. Watch the first, not the second.
Agreed.
yara_bakken is right that regain is a documented outcome rather than a character verdict.
Agreed.
Adding the one process step — write down where you are before you change anything.
What are you planning to watch for, and over what period?
Nothing on this board is a taper schedule, and no member can write one for another. What can be shared is what people watched and what they observed.
interval stretching is the most commonly described approach here
regain is the expected outcome and framing it as failure helps nobody
