Question for ppl with garmins :blush:
I noticed that qhen I feel under the weather my stress lvl on garmins app is very high and even during sleep the graphics shows Iā€™m stressed so my body battery is barely charging during sleep.
Itā€™s annoying me when I wake up and my body batt charged just a bit :sweat_smile: And that it shows Iā€™m under the moderate /high stress even though I donā€™t feel like this. Pretty sure itā€™s just body respond when I catch a cold. Do you also have like this?

That body battery really tucks me off too. All week it has been saying Iā€™m between -5 and +5 no matter what I do and then two days ago it went to +32 with absolutely no changes made by me.

I now only use as a guideline and not overdo something when it is in the negative.

Iā€™ve tried to Google it to get better understanding but was not successful

You got some serious activity going yourself girl with the crazy busy schedule you got :muscle:t4:

I think the body battery is based on your breathing and heart rate. If you are breathing more rapidly or you heart rate is higher, it sees it as stress. Mine will show stress when Iā€™m asleep sometimes too.

I havenā€™t been doing lunch break walks for a while now. I think this week I will restart them. This past week I was nursing a toe. I dropped my phone and the corner landed on my second toe. It hurt so bad! Itā€™s still bruised but it was a gnarly blue and dark purple for days

Sept 16 workout complete :white_check_mark:
Really struggled mentally today. I couldnt stop comparing myself to others in the gym. I rarely do this but for some odd reason i was doing it today. I struggled to lift the weights that i normally lift, lacked focus and mind-muscle connection, and felt physically huge. Ugh :face_exhaling: On the plus side, i DID show up and DID my workout even tho i wasnt feeling it. So im proud of myself for that!

Today i did:
Back
Biceps
20 min incline treadmill
20 min elliptical
Weight: 252.6lb (goal is to get into the 240s by next Monday)

I feel you, my motivation is nowhere in sight today and I feel so sluggish. Maybe itā€™s the after effect of an unusually busy weekend? I did lots of social stuff and that always tires me out.
Good on you for seeing your workout through though, you are rightly very proud of that! :muscle:

I am afraid that my daily 60 minutes of exercise is not going to happen today, I have been trying to muster the strength since I woke up but my body and mind are just not playing ball today.
Oh well, reduced my stats with one day and will try again tomorrow. Onwards and upwards!

Had a pretty intense free weight workout yesterday for about an hour and a half and my shoulders are feeling it today. Might not do any upper body till Thursday.

Yesterday: kettlebell beginner training
I had a muscle ache for 5 days after the last training ugh
Today: 3-4 km walk because I learned that moderate walking helps with muscle ache :face_holding_back_tears::heart_hands:
