Heart Rate Variability

This is another index to determine the health of your nervous system. This is another revealing look at how your body can stop your weight loss efforts.


Heart Rate Variability

There is another indicator that is unique to the healthy and fit:1,2,3 Their heartbeats are irregular when recovering. The time between the beats changes a lot. This is called heart rate variability.


Sign of Health and Fitness

This is a sign of health and fitness. With the unfit, there is no variability. This is used as a predictor of heart attack and predictor of mortality.4,5


"What Does It Look Like?"

A great video about heart rate variability can be seen it on this Youtube video ...
