Recovery time

Former Member over 7 years ago

Hi,
I have Fenix5X and used to have Edge 1000 and now replaced it with the 1030.
On both the Fenix and the 1000 my recovery time was somewhere between 12-24 hours depending on the intensity of the ride. With the 1030 I am getting 4 days recovery time. I know that this value is a learned parameter that should become more accurate as you ride more, but I've been using the 1030 for two months by now, and I do not see any decline in my recovery time...
Any idea what could be going on here?

Another question while I'm here... :-)
In few rides I have a "*" mark at the end of the date - any idea what this means?

Thanks,
Itay

I get the same recovery times as mentioned on here! I follow them somewhat and seem to be 'de-training' at points according to my 1030 lol

I use a HRV app to gauge recovery. Far more reliable and has more data as you use it more. The HRV4Training app is very good.

Can anybody confirm that recovery time work without using only heart rate and no power meter? Edge 1030 usually shows me 4 days recovery. I did short recovery ride today - only 30 minutes, and recovery time is 37 hours !!!

I was getting 3 or 4 day recovery times. I read in the forums that it needs to have some history before it settles down. It seemed to last for weeks, but one day it settled down. I think it’s still a bit high, eg a 60km ride requires 26 hours recovery, but given I’m now in my 50”s, perhaps it knows better than me??? I regularly do a 30 morning ride, and it’s suggesting 18 hours recovery. Mind you, I push pretty hard.
I only use HR. I don’t have a power meter (yet).

I am wondering if setting LOG HRV option on, would help to estimate recovery time. According to manual: if HRV LOG sets on, device will recorder hrv during the activity

All of the measured variables are completely irrational (Calories - way too high (more than twice of Strava value), Recovery time - way too high, VO2Max- as well (It calculated me as 73 and there is no way I'm there)).
I'm just ignoring those values as this is the last problem I have with this frustrating device.
There is also a bug causing the rest HR value to settle on 30 bpms every time I update my device might effect recovery time calculation.

Been out for an hour this morning. A couple of sprints but otherwise nothing too strenuous and i have a 39 hour recovery time suggested!

It looks like recovery time is fixed in firmware 6.3 - at least now I am getting reasonable times...

By the way - is there an option to get the popup that I used to get after 12 minutes of ride - telling me that recovery is ok? because I am no longer getting it.

because I am no longer getting it.

12 minutes? I was seeing it at around 6 minutes, but since upgrading to 6.00, it is now popping up less than half the time. I haven't upgraded to 6.30 yet.
