continuously measuring a plurality of physiological resource values of the user, wherein the physiological resource values comprise at least two of the set of: stress level data associated with and forming a body stress history, training load data associated with and forming a training history, and sleep period data comprising a plurality of sleep periods each having a period-specific sleep score;

adjusting the baseline sleep need value to the sleep need value based on the at least two of the set of body stress history, the training history, and each of the period-specific sleep scores;

determining a current sleep pressure value based on the sleep need value, wherein determining the current sleep pressure value comprises: determining a baseline sleep pressure value based on the sleep need value;

continuously monitoring a sleep and awake state of the user and analyzing one or more sleep periods and awake periods, and identifying a time elapsed since a last sleep period of the user;

determining a current body resource score of the user using the measured user physiological resource values and heart rate variability data; and

adjusting the baseline sleep pressure value to the current sleep pressure value based on the one or more sleep periods and awake periods, the current body resource score of the user, and the time elapsed since the last sleep period of the user;

calculating, based on the sleep need value and current sleep pressure values, at least one of a recommended bedtime and a recommended bedtime range; and

providing feedback according to a pre-set criterion.
