The recovery HR is measured anyway if you leave the watch on the pause menu for two minutes before saving the activity. It's stored in the activity data and you can see it on Garmin Connect. The menu item…

FC recovery?

I think you are referring to Recovery Heart Rate? In Fenix and Forerunner watches you can get that by by scrolling down after pressing the start/stop to pause/end your activity and selecting Recovery HR in the menu. It then counts down from the time you paused and tells the result after two minutes. So it doesn't happen automatically, you have to activate it after stopping.

That's fine as it is, but it would be nice if there was an option to have it start automatically when the activity is stopped, and record the RHR. Maybe someone will reply, hey that's already there.

The recovery HR is measured anyway if you leave the watch on the pause menu for two minutes before saving the activity. It's stored in the activity data and you can see it on Garmin Connect. The menu item is just for visual countdown of the two minutes and seeing the recovery HR on the watch.

I don't think it's reasonable to automate it any more, since I don't want the recovery HR notification to pop up suddenly in the middle of pausing the activity when I'm just about to continue it. And it's no use to get it after saving, because then it wouldn't end up in the activity's data (and it would be disturbed by the watch switching from hr strap to wrist hr etc.)

True, I totally forgot about the pause function. Automating the RHR measurement could definitely cause some unwanted issues. Seems like many moons ago (way before the pause function was a thing) I had a watch that automatically displayed the RHR two minutes after the run was stopped. That could've been and probably was way back when I was sporting Polar watches for running.

Bitti, I appreciate the helpful reply, thanks!
