... Or something like that.
In the past I have relied on a mixture of TSB and feel to gauge recovery. It seems that there is an increasing number of devices / apps / etc that are purporting to "measure" recovery.
While there are various threads about specific devices, I think that a single thread could be useful for understanding the various options.
I'd like to, if possible, avoid degrading the thread into retro-grouches lamenting for simpler days of "going by feel".
As far as I know we have a few categories?
1. Wearables
a. Whoop Strap
b. Motiv Ring
c. Oura Ring
2. Sports Watches
a. Garmin
b. Polar
c. Etc.
3. Apps
a. HRV4Training
b. Elite HRV
At this point I am relatively naive to what each app / device offers.
E.g. does the Whoop Strap only measure R-R variability or does their algorithm incorporate additional data?
What is your experience or understanding with the various devices?
I'll try to update as I learn and also incorporate info from others.
