Heart Rate Recovery Heart rate recovery provides an indicator of fitness and training level. As you become more fit, your heart rate should return more quickly to a lower heart rate value at the end of your activity, indicating a higher level of cardiovascular fitness. A slower recovery rate can also indicate a need to take a break from training due to fatigue, illness, or other factors. Your recovery rate represents the change in your heart rate over a period of time.
