I’ve added V02 max to the list. Or sure how accurate it is for me though as hasn’t changed in 2 years regardless of what I do. Also not sure my average slew is accurate as I definitely sleep longer than that each night (closer to 6-7 hours!

Interesting thread.

Average HR: 47
Average Stress: 25
Steps (12 months): 2,945,572
Average Sleep: 7hr 37min
VO2 Max: 48 but not tested for 6m as very rarely run. I'd expect it to have improved a fair bit.

Also fitness age 38.

39/M

Average (Resting) HR: 47
Average Stress: 28
Steps: 1,685,833
Sleep: 7h 53m
VO2 max (running and cycling): 47
Fitness age: 34.5 (BMI is 25.1 - think I need to drop about 5kg to get to fitness age of 33.5)

To get the VO2 max to update I think you need high intensity threshold workouts. It's not all that accurate imo - for a long time it had my running VO2 max higher than my cycling VO2 max after I took up running for about a week and never ran again after that - even though I'd been cycling consistently (100+km a week) for a few years.

biggrin I've dropped a few lbs recently (not really needed from a health POV) but as I get older I want to retain speed for Krav/boxing and felt it would help as I'm pretty strong anyway. I now feel like I have more energy, plus I've implemented some stuff from Andrew Huberman's podcasts, and my stress score has dropped a bit. Only downside is my watch now suggests I need to be working quite a bit harder to maintain. No surprise!

Is everyone using the average stress for 52w? 19 seems really, really low...

Retired wink

Makes a massive difference - especially no commuting.

Also I don't think it records stress while exercising and post exercise period is very chilled

Stress isn't stress as we would call it. It's all based around heart rate variability and how your body copes with recovery etc. Alcohol has a big impact, I'd not be surprised to see those with circa 20 stress level to be nondrinkers. Things like walking up stairs. A fitter persons heart rate will drop back to normal much quicker than ten ton Tessy, so her stress level will remain higher for longer.
