Making use of your data
Updated onApril 22, 2026
Collecting data about your body is only the beginning. The value appears when you start to understand it: when you see recurring patterns and react to changes.
Aidlab was designed to show not just individual numbers, but how your body works over time.
Start with your heart
Heart rate is one of the most important signals.
Because Aidlab measures from the chest, it gives you a more stable picture than wrist-based solutions, especially during movement.
In practice, this means you can:
- assess workout intensity more accurately
- see how your fitness changes
- notice earlier when your body is under more strain than usual
What to check
- Maximum heart rate (MHR) - calculated automatically based on your data
- Resting heart rate (RHR) - best observed in the morning, under similar conditions
- Heart rate zones - help you train toward a specific goal

Measure respiration
Respiration shows how your body responds to effort and recovery.
During the day, your breathing rate changes naturally, but nighttime observation is the most useful because conditions are more repeatable.
That is when it is easier to notice:
- poorer recovery
- increased strain on the body
- deviations from your norm
See: measuring respiration rate
Check skin temperature
Skin temperature is a subtle but very important signal. It is not the same as a classic body temperature measurement, but when tracked regularly, it can show changes from your usual level.
Regular measurements help you notice changes that would be invisible in a single reading:
- the beginning of an infection
- a response to effort
- the effect of stress

Monitor sleep
Sleep is when your body recovers.
Aidlab analyzes it using multiple signals:
- heart rate
- respiration
- movement
- body position
The most value comes from observing several nights in a row. That is when you start to see what actually affects your sleep quality.

Where the meaning appears
Single numbers rarely say much.
Only when you look at:
- several days
- several signals at once
- changes over time
does the full picture start to appear.
Aidlab automatically combines these signals and shows trends, meaning what is changing, not only what is happening now.
In selected situations, you will also see Insights: short summaries that help you understand what is happening faster, for example lower recovery or higher strain.
Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
HRV shows how your body is handling recovery and stress.
- higher HRV usually means better recovery
- lower HRV may indicate fatigue, stress, or overload
What matters most is how HRV changes for you over time.

ECG analysis
Aidlab lets you look deeper into how your heart works with ECG analysis.
It is not only heart rate, but also:
- heart rhythm
- irregularities
- signal quality
The analysis works at rest, when the signal is cleanest.

Activity and training
Aidlab recognizes activity context and analyzes data depending on the workout type.
- calorie burn depends on the type of activity
- only selected workouts, for example outdoor running, affect VO₂ Max
- you can sync data with other apps
This keeps the data matched to what you are actually doing.
