Common sense isn't uncommon. It's just frequently overridden.
You know that sleep matters for recovery. You know that movement affects how you feel. You know that stress impacts your health. You know that what you eat influences your energy. These aren't controversial medical positions—they're observations anyone can make from their own experience.
Yet billions of dollars are spent convincing people to ignore these obvious patterns in favor of treatments, supplements, protocols, and systems that promise better results.
This section explores how common sense works in health decision-making, how it fits into a broader health strategy, and why it's so consistently dismissed.
It examines what qualifies as common sense (vs. assumption), how to use it without dogmatism, what happens when you actually trust what you observe about your own body, and how to integrate personal observation with broader knowledge.
The goal isn't to suggest that common sense is all you need. It's to suggest that common sense is the foundation everything else should build upon—not replace.
