What do you folks use for planning your training for the day using RHR? I’ve had the watch 4 weeks now and the RHR values have not been more then 2 beats apart for the whole month. Within that month I had a very strenuous training week, a week when I was sick and two weeks of off season recovery. Still no change in RHR. Now when I awake I look at the “last 4 hours” on the watch and see a minimum HR that can be between 41 or 58 over the last 4 weeks. To me that seams more realistic to plan my training day around. What do you think?
I never owned a VAHR, so I can't say how that device reads. The VA3 has my RHR 55-58. This always matches my HR when I first get up or if I'm lying around on the couch while awake. I wear my VA3 24/7 and my HR will drop into the high 40's every night and average around 49-50 while sleeping.
