Heart Rate Variability (HRV) provides insights to help you quantify stress, better balance training and lifestyle, and improve performance.

Marco Altini (PhD, MSc) has 50 publications+ and a few patents at the intersection between technology, health, and performance. He is the founder of HRV4Training (Heart Rate Variability), an app I use daily. He is also a data science advisor at Oura; a wearable ring and app to optimize how you sleep, workout and recover. He is also a strong non-elite runner!
