Heart Rate Variability and Stress Level
Your watch analyzes your heart rate variability while you are inactive to determine your overall stress. Training,
physical activity, sleep, nutrition, and general life stress all impact your stress level. The stress level range is
from 0 to 100, where 0 to 25 is a resting state, 26 to 50 is low stress, 51 to 75 is medium stress, and 76 to 100 is
a high stress state. Knowing your stress level can help you identify stressful moments throughout your day. For
best results, you should wear the watch while sleeping.
You can sync your watch with your Garmin Connect account to view your all-day stress level, long-term trends,
and additional details.
Using the Stress Level Glance
The stress level glance displays your current stress level and a graph of your stress level since midnight. It can
also guide you through a breathing activity to help you relax.
1 While you are sitting or inactive, swipe up or down to view the stress level glance.
TIP: If you are too active for the watch to determine your stress level, a message appears instead of a stress
level number. You can check your stress level again after several minutes of inactivity.
2 Tap the glance to view a graph of your stress level since midnight.
Blue bars indicate periods of rest. Yellow bars indicate periods of stress. Gray bars indicate times that you
were too active to determine your stress level.
3 To start a breathing activity, swipe up, and select
Body Battery
Your watch analyzes your heart rate variability, stress level, sleep quality, and activity data to determine your
overall Body Battery level. Like a gas gauge on a car, it indicates your amount of available reserve energy. The
Body Battery level range is from 0 to 100, where 0 to 25 is low reserve energy, 26 to 50 is medium reserve
energy, 51 to 75 is high reserve energy, and 76 to 100 is very high reserve energy.
You can sync your watch with your Garmin Connect account to view your most up-to-date Body Battery level,
long-term trends, and additional details
