treadmill hr/bp

readyformore · 08-29-2008, 08:16 PM

so i went to the heart doctor 2 days ago and i had to run on the treadmill. For starts i had slept around 3 hours the previous night so i was tired haha. i walked for 6minutes then ran for another 4 mins and then i felt sooooooo tired.... wow when i started running though i dunno my blood pressure seemed weird... at peak it was 199/56 it started at about 140/80 and the second number kept going down while the first one went up. is that normal? lol i thought its supposed to raise?????

I'm confused: I thougth heart rate was a single number. Are talking about BP?

readyformore · 08-29-2008, 08:41 PM

lol okay i fixed it sry

what did the Doctor say? Were you taking a stress test?

BP can spike during exhertion (or even at rest) when you are in a fatigued state (IE, overtraining, over stressed, under nourished, lack of sleep etc..) and is one factor that we can sometimes look at prior to a training session to determine if the individual is prepared for high quality/intensity work or not.

well im not going to talk to the doctor till the 5th so yeah... but i dont know i thought it seemed weird thought it usually was supposed to have both go up ughh this month is going to suck with appointments haha got 2 dentist and just had 2 from the heart and 1 more coming up from the heart haha

how old are you that and have you had heart problems in the past or are you genetically predisposed to them?

readyformore · 08-29-2008, 10:14 PM

possibly genetics from my mom and her side of the family, outta like 12 of her uncles and aunts 5 of them died from heart problems. i dunno though my bp raised alot when i lost weight because i lost it very unhealthily (lost 70 pounds in 6 months by just not eating as much and pretty much no exercise). it kinda pisses me off because i find it hard to get up the energy to workout and im hardly getting any good workouts because my muscles are already tired... wtf! o yeah though im 18 year's old and weigh 195-200

**P-funk** · 08-29-2008, 10:18 PM

so you were ~270lbs...how tall are you?

i don't know what your regular exercise routine is like, but you need to really monitor your stress levels as it sounds like you have a lot going on (health wise).

when you say you lost weight "unhealthily" what do you mean by that? starvation type diet?

how long have you been working out now?

readyformore · 08-29-2008, 10:32 PM

okay first im 6'2 and 2nd yes basically starvation because normally ever since i was a little kid ive always never been able to eat alot or anything like that. 3rd i was bench pressing since i was 14 in 8th grade, dident workout very constantly and got my bench to 300 when i weighed 270 finnaly then i stopped working out and thats when i lost the 70 pounds. my current workout is just curling, push-ups, pull-up's, ab lounge, and dead lifting.

Why it is when parents know there's a solid history of heart trouble do nothing for their kids but put them on the same path?

Sorry for the off topic.

readyformore · 08-30-2008, 01:56 PM

my parents havent done anything bad when it comes to raising me i got to 270 without even eating that much but when i got to 270 nobody belived me that i was, they thought i was 220-230 or so because i was round and stuff its not my parents fault on how my health is because im the one that chooses what im going to eat not them =\...

rahaas · 08-30-2008, 05:49 PM

Gotcha - my appologies for the generalized comment. I'm on break from training this week so jumping to conclusions is the only workout I'm getting.

readyformore · 08-31-2008, 12:39 AM
