Heart rate during work out: What is desirable and what is unsafe?
1. For an aerobic activity to be effective, the intensity should be at least moderate. The best way to measure the intensity of workout such as running is to check the #Heart rate. This thread is about heart rate.
2. What is resting HR?
Resting HR is the HR noted on waking up after a good night's #sleep before you leave the bed. For most adults, it ranges between 60-100/min. For physically #fit people, it may be lower, and may range between 40-60/minute.
3. Which is better- lower or higher resting HR?
Lower resting HR is better. It means- heart has to contract lesser number of times to do its work. Studies have found that a HIGHER resting heart rate is linked with LOWER physical #fitness, HIGHER blood pressure and body #weight.
