The Resilience Lab with Rex Miller: The science behind high performance | Kristen Holmes of Whoop
In this episode of The Resilience Lab, we are talking to Kristen Holmes, VP of Performance Science at WHOOP, a wearable technology company best known for its fitness tracker measuring strain, recovery, and sleep to "unlock human performance".
Kristen tells us her story and how her research led her to WHOOP, the different variables in our routines that influence our daily performance, and how small changes can make a difference in unlocking our full potential.
The conversation dives deep into the science behind high performance where Kristen and Rex discuss topics including being chronically activated, sleep architecture, autonomic health control, the physiological sigh, and so much more. 🏃
