Slightly different context, but similar enough.
I wear a Garmin sportswatch so keep an eye on the subreddit. If you go there you’ll see daily threads about arbitrary metrics like “sleep score”, “body battery”, hrv and vo2 max. People obsess over the numbers without really thinking to take a step back and thinking about how accurate the data is and whether or not it’s actually meaningful in any real terms.
Definitely a lot of folks out there becoming slaves to this sort of thing.
- Gigachad 4y agoI have the Apple Watch and I hardly ever check the stats but every few months it pings me with something like "Over the last 5 days, your resting heart rate dropped" which was a period I was on holidays, made me wonder if it was the lack of access to coffee, or just a more inactive period where I sat in a car most of the time. The long term data can be interesting. Moved apartments and saw my elevation climbed stat went up as the local area was not so flat
