Simon Ward, The High Performance Human Triathlon Podcast
Health & Fitness
Sleep and HRV trackers are becoming more popular, and the best ones have a smart dashboard that provides lots of information on your sleep performance, and HRV trends. They also have algorithms that assess all of the data and give a daily recovery score. I started using the Whoop tracker in 2017 and I have to confess that there have been times when I have been over focussed on the data to the point where I actually worried whether I was going to have a good night's sleep. Note: This is actually a diagnosable condition known as orthosomnia - obsessing over the perfect night's sleep.
Over time I came to realise that the real value in devices like this is from the long-term trends and the behavioural changes which result.
Today's guest is Garron Mosley, an elite age group triathlete. Garron qualified to race at the recent Ironman World Championships in Hawaii and as you’ll hear the trip didn’t go quite according to plan.
More interesting to me was the fact that Garron had started wearing a Whoop band and has made some pretty significant changes to his life with amazing results as a result of analysing the data.
We talk about a lot but some topics you might be interested in include:
