Training Readiness; Recovery Time; Poor - Garmin FORERUNNER 955 Owner's Manual

Training Readiness

Your training readiness is a score and a short message that helps you determine how ready you are for training
each day. The score is continuously calculated and updated throughout the day using these factors:
• Sleep score (last night)

• Recovery time

• HRV status
• Acute load
• Sleep history (last 3 nights)
• Stress history (last 3 days)

Recovery Time
You can use your Garmin device with wrist-based heart rate or a compatible chest heart rate monitor to display
how much time remains before you are fully recovered and ready for the next hard workout.
NOTE: The recovery time recommendation uses your VO2 max. estimate and may seem inaccurate at first. The
device requires you to complete a few activities to learn about your performance.
The recovery time appears immediately following an activity. The time counts down until it is optimal for you to
attempt another hard workout. The device updates your recovery time throughout the day based on changes in
sleep, stress, relaxation, and physical activity.
