A SCIENTIFIC TOOL


​HRV4Training started as a research project and is the first validated platform able to provide reliable HRV measurements using the phone camera

Similarly, most of our analytics have been published and thoroughly documented for the scientific community (from VO2max estimation to lactate threshold and racing time estimates as well as acute HRV responses to training stressors). Please search our Blog as many additional details are provided there

You can also find all our publications at this page on Research Gate

THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO HEART RATE VARIABILITY

​
We recently put together a series of posts that cover many aspects of HRV measurement, data interpretation as well as plenty of examples that you can look at to better understand how to make use of the data, and how HRV relates to training and lifestyle stressors.

​Check them out at these links:
  • Part 1: Measurement setup, best practices and metrics
  • Part 2: You measured, now what? On interpreting your data
  • Part 3: Show me the data (case studies and practical examples)
