How to stop phone battery from dying after a workout has been completed?

I got a fenix 5x fir Christmas I have only done a couple of workouts with it. Both times the battery on my phone went from 60% to 5% about an hour after the workout was done. Most of the time my battery is good for an entire day. Why does the happen? Is there a way to stop it from happening?

Wrong forum. Your qestion does not seem to be related to Garmin Connect Mobile. You'd be better served if you posted in the Fenix 5 forum, not here in the GC Mobile Android forum.

That told, you also did not provide any details about the type of activity, whether it is an outdoor activity using GPS, or not. It is also unclear whether the watch is a new one, or a second hand model. Have a look at the following documents from the Support section for your watch for some tips, and for the typical battery life in different modes. If tuning the parameters does not help, and the watch is under warranty, consider having it replaced.
