@DanAloni Yes RHR is predictive for wakeups too. I can sleep through the night 50% of the time. I stop drinking fluids around 4 pm daily and make sure all liquids are mineralized via tea or electrolytes as without the mineralization I'll have to get up and use the bathroom.

Eating earlier will lower your RHR at bedtime.
