Can wearables really unlock the secrets of your health? In this episode, we delve into the science behind heart rate variability (HRV) and the growing impact of wearable devices on health and personalized medicine. The discussion covers how wearables track metrics like HRV to assess stress, sleep, and recovery while also examining both the benefits and the challenges of interpreting this data accurately.

Todays host, Henrik Børsting Jacobsen, is joined by three experts in the field of wearables and HRV: Marco Altini, a researcher and founder of HRV4Training; Dan Quintana, an associate professor in health psychology at the University of Oslo; and Fredrik Mentzoni from Olympiatoppen where he integrates wearables into elite athletic training. Together, they break down how these devices can provide useful insights but also caution against common pitfalls in interpretation.
