#22You can use Terra (tryterra.co) to access your garmin data !
Re: Life Monitor
#23The cumulative distance of running since 1 January of each year is not particularly meaningful. Instead, the cumulative distance in the previous 365 days for each day would be a better metric. In such a diagram it would be easier to spot in which periods the performance is above or below avarge (or any other benchmark).
I agree that what you suggest is more useful in many scenarios, particularly when one care about _monitoring_ of performance.
Unlike the rest of the notifications, my ambition with this cumulative distance plot was rather to intervene by cheering than to observe by analyzing. Put differently, I tried to gamify the yearly distance - as if I was racing against last year's version of myself. I'm not advocating for this, I just liked the idea at some point.

#24I got myself a Garmin watch at the beginning of the year, to collect various metrics automatically. The watch uses the built in heart rate monitor/sensors to derive various data specifically: - sleep hours (including the sleep phase type: deep sleep etc) - stress amounts (via heart rate variability) - energy levels ("Body battery" in Garmin speak) I've been feeling quite drained the last couple of weeks so I wanted t…
Can you link to which watch you purchased?
It’s the garmin instinct2 that I’ve got.

Since you mention a mi band, gadgetbridge should have you covered - never tried to export data myself though. https://gadgetbridge.org/ https://codeberg.org/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/wiki/Data-E...
Cheers, tried exporting using something similar like 4 years ago on a MiBand 2 and it was soooo much data unformatted. I'll check it out again.
The data is pretty much as the band provides it. Mostly in one minute resolution, giving you steps, heart rate, "intensity" (this could somehow be translated to calories). From this, you can calculate your agregated your stats...
