Here's the deal... I did my 30minutes of aerobic activity on one of those eliptical running machines today. During the course of that half hour, I found it comppletely impossible to keep my heart rate UNDER 170! Now... is 200-(age) your MAX heart rate, or target heart rate? 200-26=174 which means That I was at this heart rate for the entire workout. Is this good or bad? I'm trying to trim up... not blow up my heart! :)
I am not positive but I think that to check your THR is to use the method I learned in school which is 220-age then you can go as far as multipling it to what percentge you want for example on mine 220-25= 195 then multi. by the percentage of .6 or .7 or .8 so on and so on. If this has changed over the years please let me know as well. well hoped this helped.
yes that is EOD... well I am no doctor but I have noticed at times and found that my HR was in that area but then again I have no medical conditions. I am sure there is someone more qualified than myself to aswer this question for ya. Sorry if I couldnt help more but dont want to give bad advice to anyone...EOD
