I'd love to see what you come up with, Kansas. I do have a lot of papers on the topic but, to date, I haven't gotten beyond the theoretical. The cost of the technology is coming down, though, so I may invest in the future. Have you seen the ithlete for the iPhone?

I do research on HRV if you have any questions, let me know how I can help. I am working on publishing a few abstracts on it and one of them involves Energy Drink and a ride to exhaustion. Overall I think it is quite good and provides more info than just HR. Using it can be a bit more of a pain though, but some new HR monitor watches will do it for you or allow you access to the R-R intervals and you can run them through Kubios on your own.

Good stuff, although my vote would be to not static stretch at all and just do joint mobility.

I do like HR as a vague indicator of some biofeedback. It is far from perfect, but it gives you a hard number of intensity (but I agree with your points).

I will be interested in hearing about your results. Have you looked into HR variability as a measure of training stress? Looks to be a bit more promising than HR alone.

Steven,

I found your thoughts on heart monitors especially interesting. I’ve been using them a whole lot more recently in an informal experiment. There is little doubt that heart rate alone is not the most effective of tools to quantify training stress.

Best,
