Ultrahuman App Details
How to interpret ring data? Below are the features that you can see on the Ring Home Tab:
1) Movement Index
2) Sleep Index
3) Dynamic Recovery Score
4) Stress Rhythm Score
5) Sleep Debt
6) Zones
7) Individual Markers
8) Power Plugs
9) Workout Mode and Breathwork
-All the parameters are given a score of 0-100, where 100 is the highest.
-The closer your score is to 100, the better your movement/sleep/recovery/stress tolerance for the day.
-The aim is to be in the green zone (optimal/ within range) for all contributor
1) Movement Index. This feature helps track your mobility.
This is calculated based on the following:
- Total Calories: Dynamic calorie burn for the day/estimated energy usage for the day in kcal.
- Active vs. Inactive Time: Hours you have more than 250 steps versus sedentary hours// spent sitting mostly.
- Steps: Number of steps each day
- Activity-Active Minutes: Mapped by how many active minutes you have compared to your rest state.
- Workout Frequency: Minutes you have been in intense activity in the week.
Key Point
- This index considers the distribution of movement through the day which means you'll have a good score if you're active and moving throughout the day, but you might get a lower score even if you have worked out but have been sedentary all day. It will also consider the duration, frequency and intensity of your workouts.
- Under smart goals, you can see your step goal and active hours goal for the day. Try to meet this goal everyday for optimal metabolic health. Workout at least for 1hour for 3-5 days and avoid sitting for longer periods. This way you can get a higher movement score.
2) Sleep Index: This feature monitors your sleep quality through the night.
This is based on the following:
- Efficiency: This helps understand the overall quality of sleep
- Temperature: This shows the deviation in the temperature from the baseline
- Restfulness: Takes into account the number of movements/ toss and turns you had during sleep
- Sleep consistency: Maintaining similar sleep and wake up time helps maintain consistency
- Total Sleep: The total duration/volume of sleep throughout the night.
- HR Drop: This indicates the lowest point at which your heart rate drops to during sleep. The earlier the drop the more recovered you will feel.
- Timing: Maintaining a consistent bedtime as early as 10 PM is recommended.
- Restoration Time: This maps your Deep sleep and REM Sleep duration; collectively called restorative sleep with lower awake time.
Key Point
Make sure you have your ring on when you sleep. Try to sleep for at least 7-9 hours and maintain consistency in sleep timings by keeping +/-30min window in sleep timing
3) Dynamic Recovery Score. This score is an indication of how well-rested and recovered you are.
The recovery score is dependent on the sleep index, stress rhythm score, temperature, resting heart rate, and heart rate variability (HRV).
Key Point
- The lower the resting heart rate, the better it is for cardio efficiency and higher HRV is considered to be good for your metabolic health.
- You can see which factor is pulling down your recovery score and this can be worked accordingly to improve your recovery.
4) Stress Rhythm Score. This gives a score based on your states of 'stressed', 'stimulated' 'relaxed' or ‘sympathetic activation’ against various phases of circadian rhythm
Key Point
- The higher the stress score i.e. closer to 100 , the higher is your stress threshold.
- The dotted line shows the stress threshold through the day. You can see as the day starts and during the day your threshold is high and as the day ends your threshold tapers down. Try to keep your stress levels within the dotted line
5) Sleep Debt. This takes into account your sleep duration each night throughout the week and highlights if there is a deficit or surplus.
Key Point
- Sleep debt positive in red (bad for you) - this means you have a sleep deficit and you need to get more hours of sleep.
- Sleep debt negative in green (good for you) - this means you got surplus sleep
- Try to sleep for the minimum recommended duration and at the suggested sleep timing for optimal rest and recovery.
6) Zones. Create your own community group to share scores with friends and family, making it easy to stay connected and motivated with your closest circle.
You can also join the Transcendence Zone, where ring users from across the community share their scores of various ring metrics, offering inspiration and the excitement of seeing who tops the leaderboard.
7) Individual Markers
- It shows different markers like current heart rate, temperature deviation, HRV, Resting heart rate. VO2 (Volume of Oxygen) max and cardio age - It helps evaluate how efficiently your heart functions. Higher your VO2 max, higher heart efficiency, lowering your cardiovascular age (indicating better heart health).
8) Power Plugs: These are plugins that help customize your health tracking.
- Circadian Alignment: Provides recommendations tailored to your lifestyle that helps shift your circadian rhythm to optimize your energy levels.
- Caffeine Window: Helps you make informed choices to moderate caffeine intake
- Vitamin D: Recommends optimal time and duration of sun exposure for Vit D absorption
- Pregnancy Insights: Monitors various parameters like resting heart rate (RHR) & HRV during each trimester giving you optimal data to monitor the mother’s health.
- Cycle Tracking: Offers personalized insights during each phase of menstrual cycle
- Screentime. Helps you stay aware of your screen time, promoting healthier digital routines throughout the day
9) Workout Mode and Breathwork
- The Workout Mode (Beta). This feature helps track your live heart rate during exercise, showing which heart rate zones you’re in to help optimize workout intensity. Workout Zones are the heart rate zones where you see the heart rate ranges mapped to each zone, giving a clear view of your performance throughout the workout.
- Breathwork. This feature helps you engage in guided sessions that track your heart rate and HRV trends during each breathing exercise. With 17 silent, structured breathwork protocols along with NSDR (Non Sleep Deep Rest), this feature is crafted to support mindfulness and enhance your relaxation practice.
