Readiness

The Readiness card shows the state an athlete starts the day in: it compares last night with the athlete's own normal range and suggests whether to train as planned.

The same card sits on the athlete dashboard, with a See details link to the health page. It only appears there once watch data exists.

1. Read the tiles

   Last night HRV and Resting heart rate show a bar with the athlete's normal range and a marker for today's value. HRV is judged on the average of the last week, not a single night, and rated Balanced, Below baseline or Above baseline. Last night sleep shows sleep time, the sleep debt over the week and regularity.

2. Check the form

   The Form (Banister model) tile is the training load balance: below zero fatigue dominates, above zero freshness. It comes from activities, not from the watch, and needs a few weeks of history.

3. Read the decision of the day

   An athlete without a trainer sees one of three decisions next to Today: Train as planned, Reduce intensity or Recover or consult, with a 0-100 score beside it. The score is a helper number averaged from HRV, heart rate, sleep, the survey and load; the decision follows a rule, not a score threshold.

Athletes with a trainer

An athlete who has a trainer sees no decision and no score - only the tiles. The training decision belongs to the trainer. On the athlete's health page the trainer sees a A hint for you box with the decision and its reasons, such as HRV below baseline or Sleep too short, each with the numbers behind it.
