  • Page 70: Quick Recovery Test

    NOTE: Values below 50% measured on several consecutive days indicate an increased need to rest. Test calibration Both the sleep test and quick test need to be calibrated in order to provide accurate results. The calibration tests define what 'fully recovered' means for your body.
  • Page 71 The quick recovery test only takes a few minutes. For best results, you should lie down, stay relaxed, and not move around during the test. We recommend performing the test in the morning after waking up. This helps ensure you get comparable results day to day. You need to perform three tests while you are feeling well recovered and have no accumulated recovery time to calibrate the test algorithm.
