Every day tri asks you to rate how you feel. It seems like a small thing, but the detail matters: how you feel does not always match what the numbers show. And the gap between them is a useful signal in itself.

Why rate how you feel

Recovery, sleep, heart rate are objective data. How you feel is your personal sense of things. Usually they run together: recovered well, sharp day. But not always — and the mismatches are the most interesting part.

  • The numbers are good but you feel flat — perhaps it is not the body but the head: stress, emotion, boredom. That is fatigue too, just of a different kind.
  • The numbers are so-so but you feel fine — sometimes the body copes better than average norms, and your own sense is an important correction here.

How to rate honestly

Do not guess the “right” answer and do not fit it to the band's numbers. Mark exactly what you feel right now: heavy or light, fresh or wrecked. There are no good and bad ratings here — only honest and dishonest ones.

Rate at roughly the same time of day — that makes days easier to compare.

What it gives you over time

Daily ratings add up to your personal line of energy and mood. It shows what you cannot notice in a single day: how a hard week affects you, how you come out of a cold, what lifts you and what knocks you down. And alongside habits and sleep, how you feel helps tri understand you more precisely.

Treat the rating not as a test but as a reason to stop once a day and ask yourself: how am I really?

A wellbeing rating is a tool for self-observation, not diagnostics. If you feel bad for a long time, see a doctor.
