Body Battery

I can't understand how body battery works.  It is as if that part of the app doesn't communicate with the rest of the app features.  This morning I swam 2.25 miles over the course of about 1.5 hours and my body battery went up 12 points!!  During this time the data show I had burned 720 active calories.  How can I burn that many calories and have the body battery show an increase??  Two nights ago I slept for 6 hours and 5 minutes and my body battery went from 39 to 50.  (I usually see a much more substantial gain in body battery with that much sleep.)  That day (yesterday) I swam 1.7 miles and my body battery went down 12  points.  Ten days ago body battery went from 9 to 52 with 8 hours hours of sleep but with 18,000+ steps the next day it only dropped 12 points all day long.  All of this doesn't make much sense to me.  Is my app and/or Instinct functioning normally?  I am up-to-date on updates as far as I know.
