    This is a good reference. Hrv4training is the app I use. It is just one thing that can help with trends and stress management.

    Thanks. It is something I'll look into but I'm not sure I have enough flexibility in my schedule to adjust to this.

    It is more like, do I go all out today or hold back some? The day to day fluctuations are not what I pay a lot of attention to, it is the two week trends that show how I am coping with training. It takes 2-3 months to have enough data to be useful for programming.

    HRV a go
    Bwt 222 est. bf 18.9% I have lost 9 pounds and about 5% bf using the tape since the meet on March 18. I was am trying to get to 15 percent and go back on a mild surplus and then plan to bounce between 15-19% in the cut/ bulk cycle.1 pound a week either direction seems like a good plan long term.


    Training was good today

    Squat 45x10,135x5,225x3,315x1. All in 3:30 minutes
    395x3x3 another 10 minutes.

    Deadlift in shoes 225x2,315x1,405x1 3 minutes total add belt
    455x4x5 all hooked all in 32 minutes.

    Band leg curls 3x15
    Standing calf raise 135x20x3

    Sled pushes
    210 total weight 16 -70' intervals emom. Alternated high and low bar.
    Feel pretty decent conditioning wise.

    Barry,
    This is my the most useful tool in the HRV app I use. IT lets you dig into the data of shifts in fitness levels, HRV and heart rate than can tell how you are handling training, if you are going into a hole etc.

    Yes, it is very accurate. You just can't move your finger once you have a good reading, it is an easy skill to learn. You can set it up on how long you are willing to measure. The more variables the better but you can get good data just laying in bed for 1 minute. You can also do the lay in bed for 1 minute and stand up for 1 minute for more data. Or if you have tons of time do 2 minutes each. I normally just do a minute each. Then you answer all the subjective questions. Sleep quality, mental alertness, perceived physical condition, muscle soreness,motivation, alcohol consumption, sick or not, etc which takes another minute. It takes about 60 days of consistent logging to start getting correlative data.
