NeuroForge 3.0 — Cycle Close (Nov 10, 2024)

Finished the cycle. Subjectively the weakest so far — not because the stack “stopped working,” but because it overlapped with a very heavy training block (see: fall after the peak) and the UC Berkeley Exec program (Artificial Intelligence: Business Strategies and Applications). The combo of VO₂ sessions + deep study simply masked day-to-day effects.

What I’ll keep (and for how long)

• DHA — continue for ~1 month, then stop.
• Uridine — continue for ~1 month, then stop.

After that: full 2-month break from the stack. Planned restart: ~Feb 10, 2026.

What I actually ran

Daily protocol as in the Cycle 3 start note; effects were more “structural base” than “wow” under high load.

Takeaways

• Under high physical + cognitive stress, perceived gains flatten even if long-term building (mitochondria, membranes) continues.
• Sleep held up; HRV was volatile and tracked intensity spikes.
• The right move now is homeostasis: let the system self-regulate, keep only DHA/uridine one more month, then full off-cycle.
