Thread: treadmill hr/bp

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

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?

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

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?

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.

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 =\...

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.
