In many of our recent surgeon cohorts, we see those who are consuming alcohol on Saturdays are seeing significantly degraded physiology (elevated resting heart rate and decreased heart rate variability). Most importantly, these same surgeons self-report higher levels of stress and lower readiness on Mondays. There is no issue socializing and enjoying the weekend, but understanding how and when to consume alcohol is a hallmark of high-performance that we coach our surgical partners to understand.
Great job and informative Brian Ferguson
