HRV status refers to the current condition of your heart rate variability (HRV), which is the variation in time intervals between consecutive heartbeats. HRV is a key indicator of how well your autonomic nervous system is functioning and how your body is adapting to stress, recovery, and overall health

. What HRV Status Indicates:

• Balanced: Your 7-day average HRV is within your personal baseline range, indicating good recovery and a well-functioning autonomic nervous system

• Unbalanced: Your 7-day average HRV is outside your personal baseline range, which may suggest overtraining, stress, or other factors affecting your body’s recovery

• Low: Your HRV has dropped significantly below your baseline, signaling that your body might be under considerable stress or not recovering well

• Poor: Your baseline HRV is below age-based standards, indicating potential health concerns or decreased autonomic nervous system adaptability

HRV status is influenced by factors such as physical activity, stress levels, sleep quality, nutrition, and alcohol consumption. Monitoring HRV status helps assess your body's readiness to perform and recover, making it a valuable metric for fitness and health management

. In summary, HRV status is a personalized measure of how variable your heartbeats are over time, reflecting your body's stress and recovery state. A balanced HRV status is generally positive, while unbalanced, low, or poor statuses may indicate the need for rest or lifestyle adjustments
