What if you could track your body’s readiness, optimise recovery, and boost your overall health—just by measuring one key metric?
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Torkil Færø, author of The Pulse Cure, to explore the power of Heart Rate Variability (HRV). While many athletes use HRV to fine-tune their training, Dr. Torkil takes a broader approach—one that puts health first. And as I’ve learned over the years, when your health is in a great place, performance becomes much easier to optimise.
We dive into:
✅ Why HRV is for everyone, not just athletes
✅ The biggest causes of stress (and how they’re stealing your energy)
✅ Why taking control of your health is essential—especially after 40
✅ The benefits of sunlight, cold therapy, and deliberate breathing
If you’re looking for simple but powerful ways to improve your health, performance, and resilience, this episode is a must-listen!
