If you want to have a more productive day you can start by implementing the suggestions written in this book before you try anything else, and you will see improvement!
The author explains in depth some lifestyle changes that we should follow in order to be able to get in sync with your circadian clock. While you may have heard again for some of these, some are indeed eye opening!
I like that the author explains in detail the reasons why do’s and don’s are do’s and don’s at each particular time of the day and for each lifestyle suggestion he makes, based on our circadian clock. It seems that he did an extensive research of the subject and knows what he is talking about!

“Have a Peak at This: Synergize Your body’s Clock Towards a Highly Productive You,” by Said Hasyim, could be the key to health, happiness, and productivity. This brief self-help book is packed with eye-opening information about how your body works based on the Circadian Rhythm, which is the natural sleep/wake, energy/no energy cycles our bodies use to maintain balance.
If you’ve ever noticed how there are times of the day you are more productive than others, more alert than others, or more wiped out than others, it could be due to the Circadian Rhythm, or the cycles of your own body. Some people are “morning” people, and thrive better in the early hours, while others are “night” people, and thrive best after the sun goes down. Sleep is crucial to proper functioning and overall health, and when our system gets out of line, we feel it. Said Hasyim helps you step by step to understand, recognize, and reset your biological clock’s inner workings so that you can be healthier, happier, more energetic, less stressful, and more productive.
This author’s concise but comprehensive approach to teaching you about the Circadian Rhythm is your springboard for positive change. Change can be hard for some people. We get used to doing things the same way. We like patterns and routines. This is actually a good way of looking at our biological rhythms. Tweaking our rhythms can make a big difference in your daily life – how you feel, how you work, communicate, and live your life every day. The strategies Hasyim offers are easy to understand and carry out. Sections covered are sleep, exercise, food, and routine. It’s that simple. And if you follow the plan offered here, you may find your mind/body process working in an entirely new and improved way.
What I like about the book is its easy approach, and the positive impact it can have on just about anyone. It’s basic information you’ve probably heard more than once in your life–get enough sleep, stay active, eat the right food–but when you tie it into the Circadian Rhythm, it all makes sense. There are plenty of charts and graphs to help illustrate the points as well. It isn’t meant to replace your doctor’s advice; it’s meant to supplement it, and there is some work involved. If you want to reach your peak, have a peek at Said Hasyim’s succinct little gem, “Have a Peak at This: Synergize Your body’s Clock Towards a Highly Productive You.”

Easy, fast read. Great information about the circadian rhythm and how our body is on a biological clock. I felt like there was some good areas of advice, but I did find a lack of an exclusive approach and put all types of bodies and lifestyles in one box. I wish the chapters about fitness and nutrition were put together (and didn't focus so exclusively on strength training and fasting) and routine (with an additional stress management chapter) would have been more beneficial.

It will provide you with the solid basis quickly about sleep, exercise and eat by explaining first what goes wrong unless done well, then what benefits they bring when done well, lastly how to achieve the well.

Had Me Pulling My Hair Out at Times
Oh, where to start! I had issues starting with the introduction. The author gives two examples of people, one who lives perfectly attuned to what the author believes will achieve the peak human clock and one who does it completely opposite. Life is never that black and white; people usually have a mix of habits, both positive and negative. And I loved that the guy who supposedly did everything right ate dinner at work at 5 and then left for home at 6! Seriously, does anybody do that? And interestingly, this is not what the author suggested later in the book about eating!
The book is divided into three sections after a chapter on circadian rhythms: sleep, exercise, and eating. While the author does have some study references, much of what he claims as “scientific” fact is not backed up by any research at all. I think much is simply his own opinion, perhaps based on his experience or gleaned from nonscientific blogs. As a nurse who has studied some of these topics in-depth, I hate seeing scientific subjects not backed up with legitimate references. Just because something sounds “science-y” and factual... doesn't mean it is! This book certainly had some outright scientific errors and places where the science was over-simplified to the point of being wrong.... as well as the multiple statements of “fact” not backed up by studies or credible references.
While the author states this book is all about creating ideal circumstances for the peak human clock, i.e., working with your body's natural daily time rhythms, the section on exercise doesn't address that at all and the one about eating only minimally so. A nonfiction book should be what it promises in its title and subtitle, and this one is not. The author's writing was awkward at times, too, with wrong words and tortured phrases.
Like most books I read about productivity or better living patterns, this one gives short shrift to those who work swing or night shifts. From a statement made in the introduction, he seems to think that we all can just shift our wake/sleep schedule if we want to. Not so for shift workers!
I received a free copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.

Pandemic induced lockdown pushed us towards a sedentary lifestyle. Netflix and Chill became every household phenomenon, and we have reached a stage where we would be happy to stay in our homes for most part of the day. But, little did we wonder where we are pushing ourselves and this chill is leading us where?
Author Said Hasyimreal 's book Peak Human Clock addresses this issue and emphasizes 4 important pillars of healthy life, which are sleep, exercise, eat, and optimal routine with 'Circadian rhythm' at its core. An IT project manager by profession , Said has an obsession for finding the best ways to maximize productivity.
This book is thoroughly researched, and the author has quoted various health organization reports to complement his bio-hacks. But, the problem with this book is it's presentation which fails to keep the reader hooked until the last page, and we may miss out on some important points. Also, for some cases, a medication has been suggested, which I think should be taken after prescription from a certified medical practitioner.

I worked the graveyard shift (2100-0700) for 22 years and have always had a difficult time sleeping, even after retirement. This book doesn’t really address how to deal with shift work, but for someone who operates during normal hours, there’s a lot of good suggestions on how to manage and maintain a healthy sleep cycle, when to incorporate exercise, and scheduled eating habits. Not all of it is practical in today’s society or when involved in a cohabitating relationship, and the author does state this, and also states that incorporating even just one of the methods described can help. This book is not overly clinical, but it is informational and worth further research to anyone who seeks to adopt the given suggestions. One that I can attest to that I’ve been doing for over a year now is the 4-7-8 breathing technique that is mentioned.

I was skeptical with any diet or health book. But this book provided more than just the theory. It came with the scientific explanation of why. That's nice to learn. We have all been bored with too many fad theories on health that we become unsure which one is right to follow. Now it makes sense why some people are still fat even after adopting healthy diet. The book also covers the best time for everything. It never occur to me that there is certain time of the day when we are most productive at certain tasks. Well worth the time to read this. I'm buying this book for my father as the father's day gift.

If there is anything that I will change right now, it is to start paying attenttion to my sleep and eating schedule. How do I miss something so basic all this time? Said pointed out how working with our circadian clock benefits our mind and body, which in turn surges our productivity.
The book distilled the steps to maximize our routine by planning it in accordance to our own body's clock. Skip that afternoon dip, and you save yourself 1 hour of time a day.
I especially like the chapter about getting quality sleep. I will definitely give the techniques a try to wake up without an alarm clock.

East to read and informative. It would have been a lot better if it had a bit more detail about implementing these changes into one's daily life.

A good source of information on living optimally and bad habits to break to improve health and productivity. I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
