Following on from that any large change in HRV is likely to be an indication that something dramatic has happened. If HRV has dropped it's the stress supressing the heart's reactivity. If HRV has dramatically increased it may be that you're making significantly varied demands on your heart due to the stress other organs/systems have been placed under. I don't know exactly how Garmins do HRV but that's sort fo the explanation I get on the app I use.

And sometimes maranoia It’s interesting as a long term metric and the trend that appears, but maybe not short term. Although I look at it every morning to see “how I feel” 😂 Most of the time or always perhaps, if I have a low HRV score, my RHR is elevated too.

Interestingly due to stress over if my cat would live after being knocked down my RHR +15 and HRV very low.This morning RHR is in normal range +4 and HRV climbed as well.
