What Your Daily Readiness Score Really Means
Open FitPlus AI in the morning and the first thing you see is a number between 0 and 100. It looks simple, but a lot goes into it — and used well, it can be the difference between a breakthrough block and a burnout. Here's what your readiness score is, where it comes from, and how to train with it instead of guessing.
Where the number comes from
Four signals feed the score. Heart-rate variability (HRV) reflects how recovered your nervous system is. Resting heart rate rises when you're under-recovered or fighting something off. Sleep — duration and consistency — is the single biggest lever most people ignore. And your own morning check-in (soreness, mood, energy) captures what a wearable can't.
FitPlus AI weighs those against your baseline, not a population average. A "good" HRV for you might be a bad day for someone else, so the score is always personal.
The five recovery bands
To keep it actionable, the score maps to a band: Fresh, Ready, Loaded, Fatigued and Smashed. Fresh and Ready are green lights to push. Loaded means proceed with awareness. Fatigued and Smashed are the app's way of saying today is for volume-down work, technique, or genuine recovery.
The score isn't a grade on yesterday — it's a forecast for today.
How to actually use it
High and green: this is the day to chase a PR or add a hard set. Middling: keep the session but cap the top-end intensity. Low: let the app auto-adjust — it will trim load or swap in an easier session so you keep the habit without digging a hole.
The magic isn't the number; it's that your adaptive plan reads it and reshapes the day around it, automatically.
What it isn't
Readiness isn't a medical device and it isn't an excuse generator. One low day is noise; a week of low days is a signal to look at sleep, stress or life load. The point is to make those patterns visible early, before they become injuries or plateaus.
Train with data, not guesswork.
