HRV: What It Is and Why It Matters

Lær mer om pulsvariasjon

Have you heard of heart rate variation? You might know it by its more common name, HRV (heart rate variability). HRV is the small change in the time between each of your heartbeats — and it can tell you a lot about how your body is doing.

With Cenli, you can easily track and train your HRV using wireless sensors and a simple app.

 

What Is HRV?

You might think a perfectly steady heartbeat is a good sign, but that’s not actually true. A healthy heart doesn’t beat like a metronome — it adapts to what’s happening around you. HRV measures how much your heartbeat timing changes from one beat to the next.

  • Higher HRV usually means your body is balanced and resilient.

  • Lower HRV can mean stress, fatigue, or a higher risk of health problems.

 

Why HRV Matters

 HRV shows how well your nervous system is balancing two key modes:

  • Fight or flight (when you need to act fast)

  • Rest and digest (when your body recovers)

When your HRV is higher, it usually means your body can switch between these modes easily.

That can lead to:

  • Lower stress

  • Faster recovery from workouts

  • Better emotional balance

  • A sign of overall good health
