Key result
Nightly wearable recovery metrics link to individual training adaptations in 3000m running times.
Observational
p-value: p=< 0.05
Monitoring nightly recovery with wrist-worn wearables can help recognize individual responses to training and optimize training prescriptions.
May guide individualized training via wearables; leaves open confirmation in prospective trials.
< 0.05) with a change in the 3000 m running time. In conclusion, the subjective recovery metrics were impaired by intensified training, while the sleep and nightly recovery metrics showed no consistent changes. However, there were substantial interindividual differences in nightly recovery, which were also associated with the training adaptations. Therefore, monitoring nightly recovery can help in recognizing individual responses to training and assist in optimizing training prescriptions.

Nuuttila et al. (2025) conducted an observational in Training adaptations. Wrist-worn wearables for monitoring sleep and nightly recovery was evaluated on Change in 3000 m running time (p=< 0.05). Monitoring nightly recovery with wrist-worn wearables revealed substantial interindividual differences associated with training adaptations (p < 0.05 for change in 3000 m running time).
