Abstract: Methods and systems for generating physiological metrics for display on a computing device are disclosed herein. In some implementations, an exemplary system comprises a torso wearable device including a wireless transmitter and a sensor, and non-transitory computer-readable media (CRM). The CRM, when executed by a computing device in communication with the wireless transmitter, can perform operations comprising: receiving the input signals representing respiration of the user; displaying a graphical user interface to the user; receiving one or more user inputs associated with a desired metric; displaying on the graphical user interface a first visualization corresponding to the desired metric; and displaying on the graphical user interface a second visualization corresponding to a physiological metric based on the input signals generated from the sensor. The second visualization can change in real time based on real time angular displacement of the sensor in response to the respiration of the user.
