1/ Ask Santy Claus for a high quality bluetooth heart rate strap like the Polar H10

2/ Get one of the validated #HRV apps on your phone.
I recommend either
HRV4Training (hrv4training.com)
or
@myithlete (the app that I use - myithlete.com)

3/ Put the HR strap on (after going to the bathroom) each morning. Come back to bed, lay down, wait for your HR to stabilize & then begin the test on the app.
4/ Bonus points:
After you've done your test, complete the subjective wellness data.
If you're using ithlete, these will automatically sync with your Training Peaks acct if you have it linked up.

5/ Look at your HRV & wellness markers relative to your baseline to determine whether you will be planning loading or recovery
Strong HRV & wellness = Key session(s)/Loading
Weak HRV & wellness = Recovery
Strong HRV & wellness = Key session(s)/Loading
Weak HRV & wellness = Recovery
6/ Start now!
It takes at least a month to get a decent initial baseline established. The sooner you begin, the sooner you will be able to reach the point where the data is a useful aid in planning your training.
