I’d be interested to read more about reasons for, and how you achieve the calorific deficit you mentioned.

How does this impact your training and do you reduce training load during this time?

spot on with this analysis! i've been seeing the very same thing with me and other friends for 3+ years (consistently). the functional medicine view of these events is thru the lenses of the freeze state of the nervous system, which you did touch on, the body is trying to conserve energy. crystal clear example when higher hrv does **not** mean one ought to push harder.
