I’ve been ill for a week but my recovery has consistently been high every day

I’ve had a bad chesty cough and sore throat for about a week. I would expect my HRV and recovery to drop in the period leading up to the illness and during it but I’ve had good (up to 85% recovery) and my target strain is 70%+. Why is it not recognising that I’m unwell? And how can I make it?

Hi James Buckley I hope you're feeling better soon!
For your Recovery scores, could you send a screenshot? I'd like to check your recovery data in the calendar view. You can tap the date at the top of the app to access this.
Also, keep in mind that being sick doesn’t always mean you’ll have a poor recovery score. There may be days when your body is recovering well, leading to a higher score, especially if you had good sleep and a higher-than-expected HRV.
For your Target Strain, if you're less active while recovering (assuming that's the case), it will eventually decrease as it recalibrates based on your 14-day data.
