Body battery does not work while skiing activity.

Body battery does not work while skiing activity. After whole day of skiing I have a long flat line on the body battery graph

Not true. Body battery graph is still working during a 4:30h bike ride or 2:30 running, but not during skiing...

Here is what happens every time I play golf. Garmin acknowledged this is an issue but haven’t fixed it yet.

Skiing without hr-belt

Bike 4:30 with hr-belt

My observation is that BB works in *some* activities and not in others. When running my BB declines accordingly. When playing golf, no matter if my heart rate rockets for whatever reason, BB always flat lines.

I agree with others it seems its associated with the stress measurements.

Can we please get the fix asap as this makes BB a pointless feature?

I think I found the issue. Up to now I didn’t bother to use Hrm-belt for skiing but I used it always for running, cycling and even swimming. I took today hr-belt for skiing as well and it seems that body battery is normally declining.

So my observation is: body battery does not work at all during activities with wrist hr.

That was my first thought as well but I've verified with running activities I did with only OHR and there is an impact on BB. Perhaps all activities will have an impact using a HRM but some will have an impact regardless based on intensity.

And here to compare skiing with hr belt. BB goes down correctly. Flat lines are also right as these match breaks etc. running with hr also depleted the battery. The only thing wrong on this graph is the long flat 100 line, as it results from the day before when my BB depleted only to 80 because of skiing with OHR...
