The call counts these: rest when two or more areas show strain, take it easy with one strain or two to watch, go all out only when everything is good. No single signal decides the day.
The score sits inside the call's band (rest 0–24, take it easy 25–49, normal 50–74, all out 75–100), higher the more areas are clear.

One rule for every exercise, applied to its last session. Strength work (top set of 5 or fewer): RPE 8 or under adds load, 8.5–9 adds a rep. Accessories: add a rep up to 12 (15 for calves, laterals, shrugs, face pulls, leg extensions, flyes), then add load and drop to the bottom of the range. Bodyweight: beat the last total reps by 1–2. Any top set at RPE 9.5+: hold the load and make it cleaner. No RPE logged: repeat it. A take-it-easy verdict holds every load; a sore back drops the spine-loading lifts.

On pace
Planned pace: losing 0.5–1.0% of body weight a week (estebot.toml).
Loss is speeding up: this week is well over the 4-week pace.
A single week moves 2–3 lb on water and glycogen alone, so the 4-week line is the one to act on.
Goal: 175 lb
23 Oct 2026 at the current pace —
30.1 lb to go from a 14-day trend of 205.1,
about 19 weeks. A straight line: weight loss usually slows, so treat it as the pace you are on, not a promise.

Squat + bench + deadlift: 869 lb, DOTS 251 (273 at 175 lb with the same lifts).
Levels use common 1RM-to-body-weight bands, scaled to your 205 lb 14-day average by body weight2/3, because a plain ratio underrates heavier lifters.
e1RM comes from your best set (Epley), so lifts trained in sets of 3–5 read a little high or low against a tested single. The bands are a rough guide, not a federation standard.
DOTS compares totals across body weights: roughly 300–350 is a good recreational lifter, about 400 national level, 500+ world class.

Protein / day

kcal/day over 10 complete days. Logged = Apple's burn (active + resting) minus Cronometer intake.
Measured = what the 4-week weight trend implies (lb/week × 3,500 ÷ 7).
They differ by 386 kcal/day.
Protein target: 0.8 g per lb of body weight = 164 g/day at the 14-day trend (estebot.toml); you're averaging 177 g, 108% of it.
For reference, 1.2–1.6 g per kg (0.54–0.73 g/lb) is the range usually cited for keeping muscle while losing weight.
