How to improve sleep restoration score?

[RunMaine]

It's hard to get graded and not know how to improve the grade!

@RunMaine It's nice to see you on the Community. I'll be happy to answer your inquiry about how to improve your sleep score. 

Your restoration score provides insight into how restful your sleep was. The score is based on your sleeping and resting heart rates and how much time you spent tossing and turning. You receive a higher restoration score when your sleeping heart rate is lower than your daytime resting heart rate. 

In order to improve your sleep score, work on your overall sleep habits, heart health, and activity levels: 

• Exercise earlier in the day or at least 3 to 4 hours before you go to sleep (source).
• Maintain a consistent sleep schedule (source). For more information, see What should I know about setting a sleep schedule?
• Meet the CDC’s recommended 150 active minutes per week (source). 

Learn more about it by checking this article What's sleep score in the Fitbit app? 

I'll be around if you have any additional questions.

Is there a way to export the restoration scores?
