I've been feeling sometimes fatigued, at least my muscles, but my orthostatic test is telling me I am always recovered.
I knew I had read this somewhere, but couldn't find it again until today:
"When you start using the orthostatic test, six baseline tests should be conducted over a period of two weeks to determine your personal baseline value. These baseline tests should be made during two typical basic training weeks, not during heavy training weeks. The baseline tests should include tests taken both after training days and after recovery days.
After the baseline tests, you should continue to perform the test 2-3 times a week. Test yourself weekly in the morning following both a recovery day and a heavy training day (or a series of heavy training days). An optional third test can be performed after a normal training day. The test may not provide reliable information during detraining or in a very irregular training period. If you take a break from exercise for 14 days or longer, you should consider resetting your long-term averages and perform the baseline tests again" (in polar website)
When I started doing my orthostatic tests, I remember I was not in a very basic training level, but I wasnt pushing to hard either. However, I was under a LOT of stress and my heart rate was way up that first week when I did the test.
I am wondering if I should reset my baseline period? like do my baseline again? what do you think? it seems like it is self-updating anyways, like as new results look more similar the baseline gets modified.
