Marco Altini; How your heart can save you from overtraining
This week we spoke to Marco Altini, runner and creator of the HRV4Training app. This is a super cool app if you're a stats geek but even if you're not. It tracks your heart rate variability (the difference between beats over a minute) to use physiology and science to tell you when is the optimal time for you to train and when you might need to back off. It's the only app that is scientificaly proven to work using the camera technology on your phone and it doesn't just take in to account training stress, but life stress as well. Here's the thing; wouldn't you like to know when you're about to get ill? or about to cross the line in to overtraining? This app can guide you through all of this!! So for me as a coach but also as an athlete I think it's going to be able to help me stay far more consistent with my training and see the gains flood in.
