The strain run writes no impulse row on a day without a scorable workout
or active energy, so a rest day for someone without daily active energy
was never rated: fitness and fatigue held for months instead of
decaying, and the figures named the last stored day while the coverage
count ended there too.
A day without a stored impulse is now classified from the underlying
data: a workout on the day leaves it unrated, steps, heart rate or
active energy without a workout make it rest, and no data at all leaves
it unrated. The series runs to the day the strain run scores, so a
stretch without data after the last rated day shows in the coverage
count, and the card names the last rated day when it lies further back
than the day before.
A day without a stored training impulse was read as a rest day, so a
watch left off or a nightly run that had not happened yet pulled
fitness and fatigue toward zero. Such a day is now not rated: the
averages hold through it, the series marks it, and the card says how
many of the last 42 days were rated. A scored day of 0 stays rest. The
figures describe the last stored day rather than always yesterday.
The first page of the workout list now carries the fitness-fatigue model
over the day-total heart-rate impulse the nightly strain run already
stores: fitness as the 42-day and fatigue as the 7-day exponentially
weighted average, form as their difference. A day without a stored impulse
counts as rest. It needs 28 days and three training days, flags the first
six weeks as warming up, and reads in the person's own units only. The
workouts page shows the three figures above the list.
