Are the pre/post measurements conducted sitting in same manner as the standard morning measurement?

Hi! What would be the best way to extrapolate the parameters and outcomes of the Seiler study to adult female athletes of similar training levels (HT and T)? Would the expected VO2 max levels be lower in those groups of subjects, and would the expected recovery time of HR and HRV also be lower, and if so, by how much? If you have any links to relevant studies that you know of offhand, I'd appreciate it. In a brief search I found some studies done measuring morning values of HRV in elite female athletes, but nothing involving pre/post exercise in a population comparing subject groups similar to HT and T in the Seiler study. Thanks :)

This is great stuff, thanks Marco!

As an ultra trail runner, ensuring adequate recovery is super critical and keen to explore this further myself! As an ambassador for 2023, is this app included in our access package?

Very informative!

You mention more ectopic beats after a hard workout….that may be even a better indicator of stress than HRV! Any concern about that? (See: The Haywire Heart: How Too Much Exercise Can Kill You, and what You Can Do to Protect Your Heart)

Maybe you can also track down LT1 with some experimental protocols? An idea could be comparing a training that takes place in upper end of zone 2 and another training in lower zone 3 (5 zone model).

What sort of physical body position do you use during pre- and post-workout HRV collections?

Is it worthwhile for individuals to consider collecting this as part of normal workout data?
