With watch OS4, Apple Watch now measures also HeartRateVariability in mS ??
But what's a normal value and can someone please explain a little bit more about this HRV, like when and how often it's measured. And most important, like I asked before, what are normal values. My watch now says that my HRV is 46 ms.

HRV is relative to each individual. The way it is supposed to be used is to take it at the same time every day, usually when first waking up, and create a baseline over as much as a month. Deviation up or down from this baseline is indicative of your body being rested and ready for activity vs. stressed and in need of recovery.
Where do we see this value?
A trainer by the name of Joel Jamieson has done extensive research on HRV for athletes to prevent overtraining and enhance recovery. Google him for the most updated research.
This site now charges $250 for a “course” in HRV. Jeez. I come here to learn and get asked for $. Did you pay?
