I would find that very useful as I always wait for it and take note. I can say that due to having a year not being able to train properly has definitely lowered my HRR from 70ish to 50ish. However I thought that its main use is being a very good predictor of cardiac health ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
tipsku Feb 2023 9:28pm, 21 Feb 2023 2,489 posts	0 tipsku I think my watch does that but I have to ask for it; it doesn't automatically show me the recovery time. It's an option at the end of an exercise to look up the HR recovery. I don't know where that would be stored in the fit file and if that could be captured by this website. My old Polar used to beep 2 minutes after ending an exercise and tell me how much HR dropped in that time.

Badger Feb 2023 11:06pm, 21 Feb 2023 16,055 posts	0 Badger Am I right in thinking that it shows the rate after 2 minutes here rather than the drop ? Yes, because the rate after two minutes is what's stored in the fit file, and the runalyze dashboard grabs a set of values out of the fit file and does minimal processing on them. I did ask if they could calculate the drop instead, and they said "...it's technically not possible to show these e.g. in the databrowser, because we would need to load for all activities the raw data for the activity" to extract the last value in the activity, and they'd open a ticket for it. That was a couple of years back, though, so I'm not holding my breath.
