In this podcast episode, the hosts explore how wearable data from devices like Oura and Whoop can enhance recovery. They stress the importance of examining specific metrics such as body temperature, respiratory rate, and heart rate variability (HRV) instead of just looking at overall scores. The discussion highlights the need to identify early signs of illness and leverage data to shape effective recovery strategies, including cold water therapy and breathwork techniques like the Wim Hof Method and 4-7-8 breathing. Additionally, the hosts emphasize the significance of tagging data to monitor the effects of various interventions and create tailored recovery plans.
