Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is a critical metric for tracking stress, recovery, and long-term cardiovascular health, especially for runners over 50. In this video, Olympic Marathon Coach Lindsay Parry explains what a good HRV number is for your age, why HRV is so important, and how you can improve it.
Discover how HRV can help you optimize your training, prevent injuries, and maintain overall fitness. Plus, learn practical tips on improving recovery, sleep, and stress management to boost your HRV and performance. Watch now to unlock your full potential as a runner! - Спорт
Great video, thanks. Restarted training after a 10y pause, bought a Watch a week ago and HRV ist increasing slowly - from 33 to 41 :-) brings up a smile on my 51yrs old face ;-))
I am 56 and tracking HRV over the last few months of training for multiple long distance events. My highest HRV number has been 35 low of 22. Lately it’s been low and coincides with fatigue and battling some depression. I run four days a week and when necessary ill cut it down to three for extra recovery. Great videos! Very helpful information.
Hi, i tried to get back into base training again by walking, and slowly build to a light run most times. But because of depression and chronic stress, its been hard and my HRV is so low. I get tired easily too and after reading and watching some videos on stress and depression, fatigue is one of the persistent symptoms and i suspect reduces my immunity and i am so susceptible to chills and cold despite my warm weather over here! I read that because of these issues, cortisol levels shoots up and harmful, so i am hoping the dopamine and adrenaline we get from exercising will help counter it. I hope yo get through your depression soon and keep exercising, even if you don't feel like it! God bless and take care.
Did you try NMN + Reservatrol? @@twwong27
Great Channel and as a 57 year old training for a marathon, I appreciate your teams insight. HRV is confusing and most people are using a Garmin watch that tracks it. When using the Garmin watch it will give you a baseline based on a couple weeks of overnight HRV tracking. If you stay within this range then your training stress levels are healthy. I typically check my HRV and resting heart rate to determine day to day stress to determine if I am able to manage the intensity of a specific workout.
I just turned 50. This is the first summer wearing a watch that tracks HRV. Didn’t really know what it was until lately but it’s always 66-74 all summer
Thank you for doing this video. It confirmed a number of suspicions I had, especially the impact of stress on my body and workouts. Thank you!!
Very helpful video. I recently got a new watch and it tracks HRV. It’s nice to have a better sense of its meaning and usefulness. I only have a few weeks of data. It will be interesting to see a year’s worth.
Hey, I like your videos, but I think you’re missing to clarify an important point here: at no point you made clear that you have a range is under recovery conditions or right after a training meaning unrecovered so bottom line which values to be taken to calculate the average and which to maybe look at carefully because we are under noticeable stress.
I’m 55, cyclist, averaging 48-54. When fatigued or alcohol the night before, drops below 40…
I´m 42 and my HRV is between 85-100 with a Garmin 965. When I´m stressed out, it can go down to 70 or even 65. I´ve been doing sports for most of my life but don´t compete. Just running and strength training and swimming if I get the chance.
Holy sh. Those are numbers I dream about. I've been tracking it daily since April, I'm 34 years old and my HRV average is roughly 65 ms.
I'm 51 and the one thing I can clearly relate to my HRV is training. I know I'm overtraining when I see my HRV dropping, as soon as I "ease up" It goes back up. I only wish I could sleep better to help, but that just doesn't seem to happen whatever I do.
Great thanks for the various ranges.
Just not sure how accurate my Garmin actually is. Current resting heart rate is 36 to 37 bpm and my Garmin HRV Range is 79-88 ms and I am 45 and no professional athlete.
I am fittish. 25-26 minute parkruns.
Even when in phases of laziness and overweight my resting heart rate never really goes above 45.. as you say I generally look at the trend but necessarily the value to see if I am unbalanced or low. I don't generally have success with wrist based heart rate and when exercising I always use a chest strap..
When should you take your Hrv? During the night? first thing in the morning? during training? It varies greatly throughout the day.
Thanks. That was very helpful. I am now paying attention to the downward HRV over days as an indicator that I need to rest.
I wonder if there are supplements we can take to raise our HRV? I'm thinking ginseng.
Ashwaganda has been help me reduce stress throughout the day which which improves HRV. I take a Magnesium supplement an hour before bed to improve my sleep quality which improves HRV
I’m 57 and mine has never been higher than 25 average with lows of 19. Generally for me it’s good if I can hold 22-23 for a few days. What can I do.
Thanks for the insight. Question: would a 45yr old with an average HRV range of 85-95ms be physiologically better equipped to absorb a higher training load than a 45yr old with an average range of 45-55ms?
What does it mean if hrv is unbalanced?
It means you haven't recovered.
It means you've had a hard training session previously and need to improve recovery with rest. Or that your sleep is bad. Or that you've been too stressed.
As the other comments said, but keep in mind at least Garmin will show you a 7-day average, which means if your HRV is unbalanced, that's the result of several stressful days. whether that stress comes from overtraining, drinking, unhealthy eating, undersleeping, work, etc. will have to be determined by you.
Average 44 for age 55? Then i'm well outside of average with hrv being 80+ at age of almost 56 or my garmin is incorrect. Anyway I hope that this means that i'm well tapering for half maraton on this Saturday. 😀
I am 67...what is a good range?
