Stress that spurs you into action is great. In many cases its needed. It keeps you alert and cognizant of variables and timelines. The adrenaline carries you further than you'd otherwise have.

Stress that paralyses you is not. Sleepless nights are detrimental in the long run.

Measure it by outcomes you drive when stressed. If you're lagging its the wrong kind of stress.

Stress is a river. Let it flow.

20kg for deadlifting right now is the max stress I can take now with 10*4 sets. I want to take it to 50 kg in a year even if it is just 1 set. But I take this stress at home. I once took a barbell to the office but the security person slapped me and warned me not to repeat this again.
