Tips for Improved Body Battery Data
Your Body Battery level updates when you sync your device
with your Garmin Connect account.
For more accurate results, wear the device while sleeping.
Rest and good sleep charge your Body Battery.
Strenuous activity, high stress, and poor sleep can cause
your Body Battery to drain.
Food intake, as well as stimulants like caffeine, has no
impact on your Body Battery.
