Overview
The Stability score rates how stable your body’s key signals are each morning, on a scale of 1–5.
It tracks four factors: heart rate variability (HRV), resting heart rate (HR), symptom severity, and sleep score.
It’s a stability score, not a wellness score. It shows how balanced your signals are, not how well you are expected to feel.
Use your Stability score as a daily pacing guide, not as medical advice.
The Stability score helps you understand how stable your body’s key signals are. These include your heart rate variability (HRV), resting heart rate (HR), symptom severity and sleep score.
For more about how the Stability score is calculated, see Stability score.
Stability not wellness
It's important to note that your Stability score is a 'Stability' score, not a 'Wellness' score. This distinction is important. It’s a data-based snapshot, not a direct measure of how you feel.
The Stability score reflects how stable your body's signals are:
Higher score (4-5): Your body is showing consistent, balanced signals. This is likely a sign of stability. If your results are higher (e.g., 4 or 5), it means your signals are stable, not that you should feel well.
Lower score (1-3): Your body may be under more stress or strain, with less stable patterns. If your score is lower (e.g. 1 or 2), it means your signals are out of balance, not that you're doing terribly. A low score might suggest you prioritize rest where you can.
How to use your Stability score
The Stability score is a tool to help you make informed decisions about your daily activities, pacing, and rest, rather than give you advice on your condition. Let it guide your pacing, help you listen to your body, and make more confident decisions about rest and activity. A stable score doesn’t always mean you’ll feel great, and an unstable score doesn’t always mean something is wrong.
If you are ever concerned, look at your trends over time rather than focusing on a single reading. A steady decline in heart rate variability (HRV) could signal your body is struggling to recover or handle stress.
This score is a pacing support tool. It helps guide you in knowing when to prioritize recovery, but it’s not intended to diagnose or provide medical advice. If you have health concerns or need guidance on how to manage your well-being, always consult with a healthcare provider.
Common questions
Why did I get a high Stability score when I felt terrible?
Why did I get a high Stability score when I felt terrible?
Your Stability score reflects how stable your body's signals are, not how well you feel. Even if you're feeling terrible, your heart rate, heart rate variability, sleep and symptom score might still be within your normal range. If they are, your score will reflect that.
Why don't I get a higher Stability score when my heart rate metrics are improving?
Why don't I get a higher Stability score when my heart rate metrics are improving?
A higher heart rate variability (HRV) and lower resting heart rate (HR) are generally positive signs. However, they can still represent a change from your personal baseline. The Stability score treats any change from your normal range as potentially significant, so nothing is missed.
If you consistently see improved readings, your baseline will adjust over time, and your score will update to reflect this.
Does a low heart rate variability in my Stability score mean I'm going to crash or experience a worsening of symptoms?
Does a low heart rate variability in my Stability score mean I'm going to crash or experience a worsening of symptoms?
A low heart rate variability (HRV), especially outside your normal range, can suggest your body is under extra stress from fatigue, illness, or recovery. It may indicate your body is struggling to stay in balance.
If you notice a low HRV, focusing on recovery techniques may help. For example, rest, hydration, or coherent breathing.
