HRV4Training vs 20 Pull

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.

Twenty consecutive pull-ups and then some! Inspired by the classic 20 pull-up challenge and rebuilt on current strength research, this program starts wherever you are today, even absolute zero, and keeps going long after you hit the goal. BUILT FROM WHAT YOU CAN DO TODAY There is no fixed table of sets to get through. Every session is calculated from your current max, so the numbers are never out of reach and never too easy. Beat your max and the whole program moves up with you, the same day. CAN'T DO ONE YET? Say so. You start on slow negatives, and the moment a full one appears, the program switches over on its own. YOUR SCHEDULE Train 2 to 5 days a week and pick the days. The week's work is spread across whatever you choose rather than piled on top, and a missed day simply moves the plan forward. IT ADJUSTS AS YOU GO Most sets stay well short of failure; one session a week ends all-out, and that is what re-sizes everything. Say how much you had left and the next session answers. Two hard sessions in a row and the one after is lighter on purpose. WHEN REPS STOP BEING ENOUGH There comes a point where more reps stop making you stronger. The app notices and turns one session a week into heavy work to push past it: added weight if you have a belt, vest or backpack, explosive pull-ups if you don't. YOURS ALONE No account, no cloud, no ads. Your sessions, streaks, bodyweight and trends stay on your phone, with one-tap export for backups. Grab the bar!
