HRV4Training vs Airofit Legacy

The first scientifically validated Heart Rate Variability (HRV) app. HRV4Training provides HRV based insights to help you quantify stress, better balance training and lifestyle, and improve performance. HRV4Training does not require a heart rate monitor, since it can accurately assess your HRV using the phone's camera. HRV4Training also works with Apple Watch, the Oura ring and all compatible Bluetooth SMART sensors. HRV4Training is also the first app that goes beyond simple measurements and provides insights on: 1) acute or day to day HRV changes in response to different stressors (alcohol, travel, sick days, training, menstruation, etc.) 2) long term multi-parameter trends to look at the big picture 3) correlations between physiological measurements and annotations 4) training load analysis, fitness, fatigue, readiness to perform and injury risk 5) VO2max estimation for runners linking the app to Strava or TrainingPeaks and using a heart rate monitor during their workouts 6) Training Polarization analysis (or 80/20) 7) Lactate Threshold Estimation for runners linking the app to Strava or TrainingPeaks and using a heart rate monitor during their workouts 8) Weekly and monthly summaries to track progress. All data is processed inside the app in order to provide you with actionable interpretations that can help optimizing your training plan and performance. Supported devices for the camera measurement: iPhones 5, 5S, 6, 6S, 6+, 6S+, SE, 7, 7+, 8, 8+, X, XS, XS Max, XR, 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, 12 mini, 12, 12 Pro, 12 Pro Max, 13 mini, 13, 13 Pro, 13 Pro Max, 14, 14 Plus, 14 Max, 14 Pro, 15, 15 Max, 15 Pro, 16, 16 Max, 16 Pro Currently unsupported devices for the camera measurement: iPhones 4S, iPads and iPods - These devices require a chest strap. Other features: - HRV-based advice helps you to adapt your trainings based on objective measures of recovery - TAGS: lets you tag your sleep, mental energy, muscle fatigue, stress and all other parameters that can help you understand what is influencing your physical condition and physiological stress - Works with Bluetooth SMART heart rate monitors (a Polar H7 is recommended) or simply your phone's Camera - Integrates with the Health app (writes heart rate, and sleep, read sleep time) - Configurable test (single or orthostatic, choose test duration between 1, 3 or 5 minutes) - Extracts and stores the following features while lying down and/or standing: heart rate, mean of beat-to-beat intervals (AVNN), standard deviation of beat-to-beat intervals (SDNN), square root of the mean squared difference of successive R-Rs (rMSSD), number of pairs of successive R-Rs that differ by more than 50 ms (pNN50), low frequency power (LF, 0.04-0.15 Hz), high frequency power (HF, 0.15-0.40 Hz) - Shows the PPG signal view to ensure signal quality during the test if the camera is used instead of a bluetooth SMART sensor - HRV4T Recovery Points to provide a single, straightforward metric to analyze your physical condition - Population summaries and people like you comparisons to put your data into perspective - Analysis of compliance and consistency - Data export via email or Dropbox - Integrates with TrainingPeaks, Oura, Strava and Coros HRV4Training requires to register an account with your email address, so that your data can be backed up safely and retrieved in case anything happens (app issue, changing phone, etc.). HRV4Training does not provide medical advice. It is intended for informational purposes only. Consult a medical professional before making health or lifestyle decisions.

Breath training has been under-prioritized in sports for too long, though scientific studies continuously prove its multiple benefits. Airofit has developed the first-ever breathing trainer that connects respiratory training with state-of-the-art app technology. Once the app is paired with the Airofit breathing trainer, you will need to take a lung test to measure your respiratory strength. After taking the lung test, you will have the option to choose one of the many programs to train your breathing. The programs will be customized according to your preference and physical condition. As a result, you can practice your breathing and keep track of your progress to see your improvements. The Airofit app is packed with loads of features, including: * INFORMATIVE LUNG TESTS: Measure your vital lung capacity and your maximal respiratory pressures. * TARGETED TRAINING PROGRAMS: Improve your physical performance by training towards specific goals. * CHALLENGING EXERCISES: Follow visual and audio instructions of how to breathe when you train. * ENGAGING ACTIVITY TRACKING: Track your progress and review your records for all the trainings and tests. * EASY PERSONAL CUSTOMIZATION: Set up reminders and personalize your profile to create the most out of your trainings. You can target you breathing training towards one of several goals, including: * RESPIRATORY STRENGTH: Enhance your respiratory power by training the strength of your lung muscles. * ANAEROBIC TOLERANCE: Increase your body's resistance towards lactate by increasing your ability to hold your breath. * VITAL LUNG CAPACITY: Increase your vital lung capacity by improving the flexibility of your lung muscles. * INSTANT PERFORMANCE: Boost your blood circulation and mental focus by breathing properly, just before important performances. * RELAXATION: Strengthen your state of mind and reduce stress levels by following meditative breathing patterns. Airofit is proven to improve your physical performance by up to 8% within just 8 weeks, training only 5-10 minutes twice a day.
