Export heart rate data

I want to export the heart rate data collected over a period of a week or more. How can I do this? I am noticing a drop in my heart rate after eating when normally I would be tachycardic so I would like to be able to turn this data into a spreadsheet or figures.

  • From the https://connect.garmin.com/ Activity Summary you may click on the gear icon and select Export to TCX. The dowloaded TCX file has lines like:

    <HeartRateBpm>
    <Value>102</Value>
    </HeartRateBpm>

    In contrast, the Daily Summary page gear icon downloads files in a FIT format. The FIT format is known to be very difficult to work with.
