Body Battery not charging after a hard workout

After a hard workout, and the body battery hiting 5%, the following night it does not rechage. It's still at 5% the next morning. I'm getting between 7 1/2 and 8 1/2 hours of sleep so I would expect some kind of change. Is this normal?

    Unfortunately, this is probably normal. The latest firmware in this is probably angry. I sleep 9 hours and for example I have +0 for 3 days in a row and still 5 points battery. It does not affect whether I play sports or not. It used to be very reliable, lately it has been showing itself as it wants. It should be measured mainly from the heart rate. I have noticed that if the watch has less than 60% energy, the body battery does not increase. If the watch is charged, the body battery also goes up. Although it is absolutely unrelated. I have a sleep of 9 hours, of which 1.30 hours of deep sleep, I will not wake up and in the morning, for example, plus 0%. During the day I charge +20 even during activity. This did not happen at all before. I'm glad I don't have it alone. :-)

    Yes, I've dealt with it before and it was accurate. I was tired, I looked at my watch and there was a low body battery. Lately, I look at my watch, I'm rested, full of energy and I have 5 BodyBattery 3 days there. I do not get it. Nothing unusual in the heartbeat.

    Please review your stress levels based on your heart rate, on your Garmin Connect web account. Researching all worldwide reports, when we have had reports of any body battery feature watch whether a Vivoactive series, Venu series, or Instinct series watch, in every report we prior researched that I went through just now, we found high stress levels for all customers reporting body battery not charging. As long as there are high stress levels seen, your body battery will not charge.

    Yes, the question is whether the stress it is based on is measured well at the moment. It just occurs to me that lately, about the last 2 months, it doesn't match much. In particular, what can this have to do with the new SW and battery charge in hours? It should have no connection. Stress as such comes mainly from the heartbeat as well, right?
    Thank you, for your connect Chris!

    Chris - I just checked my stress levels overnight and it was interesting to see the amount of stress my body was showing overnight (at lease when there wasn't gaps in the data). It was only in the medium range but I must wonder if it's residual from my hard MTB ride the day before? Next time the body battery doesn't charge I'll check my overnight stress levels. Thanks for the insight.

    That doesn't make any sense. Unless your in perfect health there will be no charge regardless of amount of sleep or quality of sleep? If your going to make these gimmicky parts of the app at least make them using logic.
