Exercise load stopped changing

My exercise load seems to be bugged and has not changed since I had a little break from exercise over Christmas. This has happened before after a break but a factory reset of my watch (keeping the data) fixed this. I have tried doing the same again but it's still stuck.

It has even dropped one day after a run then got stuck again even though I'm exercising most days.

This is what it usually looks like

Admittedly I did take some time off but that shouldn't cause an issue when I started back. I should be able to take some time off without having the load gitch out and be stuck at a certain level.

Hopefully I'm not the only one with this issue and would appreciate any advice if anyone has managed to fix it

I am not sure I understand what you mean. First of all you speak about Exercise Load, but only posted screenshots of your Acute Training Load. But even if you just mistook, and meant the Training Load, and not the Exercise Load, then I see your Acute Training Load (white dots) changing very progressively in the last days. No bug there.

The only value that does not change much on your screenshots, and drops a bit 5 days ago, is the Chronic Training Load. However, since the Chronic TL is a rolling average of acute training load over the last 28 days, and you did not post the data of the ATL from the previous 4 weeks, it is hard to tell whether there is any bug or not.

Yeah sorry I mean my optimal and chronic load have stopped changing. Here's my chronic load for the last photo

Also here is the last time it was bugged the month before the above photo.

After I reset my watch it seemed to work until I had another break

For clarity this is what im used to

You can check for yourself what the Chronic Training Load should be. It is hard to tell without doing the math - the CTL can indeed be stable if the sum over the last 28 days does not change. You can enter the ATL data (hold your finger on the white dots to get a tooltip with the exact value) for the last ~60-100 days into an Excel table, and create a formula calculating the rolling average for the past 28 days, in a separate column. You can then verify whether the data shown on the TL graph are correct or not. If the values differ, contact the Support and send them also the Excel table proving the error.
