Heart Rate Variability

HRV seems to be gaining popularity by athletes to avoid over-training and others as a stress management tool. I have been doing some breathing work to influence my HRV to relax. Has anyone done any work with HRV Biofeedback?

Oh hey, I've been messing with this for a while. To be honest, I've found that certain factors that are not entirely in my control (mainly sleep) are far and away the largest influence on HRV. Mine also isn't particularly great. There's some really interesting stuff coming out about it.

Kavadude how are you measuring and storing the data? I'm expecting a Bluetooth strap to be delivered today and my plan is to use one of the phone apps with it.
