Fenix 6 Body Battery says I’m dead.

I went from 70 to 5 three days ago and entered Zombie Land stuck at 5 even though I hiked up 2000 vertical from 10,000 to 12,000 feet after sleeping 9 hours last night. Body Battery and Stress tracking are garbage. Garmin should drop both. The syncing problems are bad enough without bogus tracking applications.

    My condolences. But why not post this in the Fenix 6 forum?

    Maybe you should have bought a 945 then Rofl

    I think Garmin is telling you that you are pushing too hard.

    I do monitor the stress regularly. Not so much on body battery.

    Can you elaborate on this some more. Do you find the stress indicator to be more accurate than the body battery? I usually watch the body battery since it's up front and seems to match my energy level in general. I often forget there's a toggle for stress.

    I have a poor nervous system. I get tense or panic easily. And my HR spikes when it happens. But I don't have any medical condition. When my HR spikes, it will fall off quickly after that.

    At the moment my daily stress level is around high 20s. So I basically monitor this more often. If stress is too high, I will just rest and slow down more.

    For body battery, I don't think I need a watch to tell me I'm tired or low in energy. I can feel if I'm tired or sleepy.

    Oh just curious, what's are you guys daily stress level? Just for curiosity sake. Slight smile

    Last 4w, overall stress level 24. Daily seems to be 13-34.

    My stress level is 28 (when I look at last 7days / 4weeks /1 year - yup, all the same number. First time I've looked. I may keep an eye on it going forward.

    I look at body battery in the mornings, to see if I've "recharged" sufficiently over night, and sometimes in the evenings, particularly after a hard day of exercise, to see how low I am.

    Fun to look at the curve the evening after running a marathon in the morning .. :)
