Health Metrics That Influence Longevity
Longevity describes long-term health and lifespan. Many modern wearables attempt to estimate longevity using physiological signals from daily health data.
Why Health Metrics Matter
Health metrics provide signals about how well your body recovers, adapts to stress and maintains long-term physiological balance.
Important Longevity Metrics
- HRV – reflects stress and recovery
- VO₂max – reflects cardiovascular fitness
- Resting heart rate – reflects cardiovascular health
- Sleep duration – influences recovery
- Stress level – reflects physiological strain
Connection to Biological Age
Many of these metrics influence biological age. People with better sleep, lower stress and higher fitness often show a lower biological age.
