I use hrv4training with a chest strap in the mornings but I also wear an oura as I like tracking overnight physiology and being able to track bed/wake times (the actionable step here is that I’m trying to shift my bedtime earlier).

But I agree! In the absence of actionable steps, why track x metric?

Thanks Marco for sharing your view on this topic, and reminding audience about the basics. How about tracking HR during sleep? I usually look at this indicator to correlate my morning feeling. I can also observe very low HR values, or sometime it doesn't go that low and it can confirm me this was too much exercise previous day or intense work out and I need another night sleep to regenerate fully. Same as you I do not look anymore at sleep stats on my Garmin simply because the start time is usually wrong (I often read on my Kindle in bed then after 15min fall asleep!).
