10.44 - Training Status STRAINED and not changing despite reasonable load

I'm pretty certain this is related to 10.44 and has occurred since it dropped onto my watch. I don't think I've even seen this training status recently as I'm still doing things but no major training for an event or anything like that. Training load is low 300's. Any thoughts? The watch also doesn't seem to be moving on from it even when other variables like sleep, HRV etc have changed.

Is it possible for you to provide more details? It’s hard to say if it’s update-related or if it’s influenced by what the watch has estimated recently from you.

300-Low or within optimal range?

For better or worse?

After a month between Strained, Unproductive and Overreaching I decided to forget about it and train normally for a week. Now I’m Productive/Maintaining. Biggest improvements that I think changed it were:

Heat acclimation 0 > 45%
VO2 Max Decreasing > Steady

PS. This was all while in v.9.36

Yeah I am having a similar issue with the status not changing following the 10.44 update - https://forums.garmin.com/outdoor-recreation/outdoor-recreation/f/fenix-7-series/318377/vo2-max-increasing-but-training-status-says-no-trend-and-stuck-in-recovery-since-10-44-update-on-f7xss

Same. No trend in vo2 max in training status despite vo2 trending up.

I am having this issues at the moment. My training load for the last few weeks have been low, and I feel like I am sleeping fine but yet my watch is saying I slept poor. Its really frustrating. I have been promoted at work and I have more mental side of the job. My previous job is was constantly on my feet. Any ideas?

With 10.44? Might be best to update to a newer version and see if the problem remains. If it does, perhaps start a new thread.

im on 14.68, the bug must've been recreated

same. I feel great but HRV low and strained for about 3 weeks now. Nothing had changed for me either so I'm leaning towards it being a bug than my body!

Ditto. HRV unbalanced, Training Readiness 1, Training Status overreaching for several weeks. It's like its stuck. I haven't changed my workout or daily regiment. Hope it's a bug.
