Hi all,
I am suffering from Coronavirus (rocky few days but starting to feel better today) and one of the main things I noted is that my resting heart rate has gone up by 25-50% and even more, just walking up one flight of stairs causes heart rate to spike 125. I've seen many others on social media make comments like "just climbing my stairs feels like mount Everest" and so on - well if you have a heart rate monitor you can see why straight away.
It never normally does this when I'm not ill and 125 would be my normal rate when I'm out on a 5 mile run.
Does anyone know if Garmin are working on any updates because it struck me that these kind of activity watches could issue a proactive warning to people if these kind of effects are observed like "Coronavirus warning - year heart appears to be working much harder than normal following very short movement" or something like that?
cheers
Patrick.
