WRISTGRID GUIDE

Track Garmin recovery and readiness on your iPhone

Recovery and readiness tell you whether today is a training day or a rest day. Garmin provides recovery time and supporting watch signals; WristGrid computes its own recovery score from sleep, resting heart rate, stress, and Body Battery, then shows the result on your iPhone.

What recovery and readiness mean

Garmin watch data supplies recovery time and the supporting signals WristGrid uses. WristGrid’s recovery score weights sleep at 35%, resting heart rate at 25%, stress at 25%, and Body Battery at 15%; training load and resting heart rate add context.

Connect shows the detail well; it just does not put that score on your iPhone Home Screen as a widget.

Why it belongs on your phone

A quick readiness check each morning guides training decisions — and it is fastest as a Home Screen widget before you lace up or book a hard interval session.

Pair recovery with Body Battery and stress widgets if you want energy, strain, and readiness in one glance.

How WristGrid shows it

WristGrid reads Garmin-native recovery time and supporting watch data, then computes its recovery score with context such as stress load, resting heart rate, training load, and move bar as an iPhone widget. The in-app Recovery screen expands the same story when you want more than a glance.
