FAQ

No. The WMC explicitly strips all spiritual, religious, or esoteric frameworks from the competition. We measure autonomic nervous system down-regulation, heart rate variability, and brainwave states. How an athlete achieves these physiological states is their own business, provided they do not violate pharmacological rules.

No. Optical PPG sensors on smartwatches introduce unacceptable latency and artifacting when measuring raw HRV (RMSSD). You must use an approved chest strap (ECG) transmitting over a low-latency protocol like ANT+.

Immediate disqualification. WMC algorithms track Alpha-Theta crossovers. If Delta waves (associated with deep sleep) become the dominant frequency for more than 30 consecutive seconds, the attempt is red-flagged and zero points are awarded.
