Lowering resting heart rate

That's so weird, there's this other poster on here called Minestrone who also obsesses about running.

My heart rate is about 70.

What's the point. The extra beats consumed exercising trying to lower the heart beat likely far exceeds those saved anyway, summed over say a year.

Maybe a better measure, instead of cheating beats per minute, should be beats per year.

I do not think I run to lower my heart rate, I choose to do it because I find it enjoyable.

Thanks Dave, next time just post the link to Wikipedia

Thanks russell, next time just post the link to your previous thread about resting heart rate:

The best post in that thread

If you keep obsessing about it your heart rate will keep going up because you're worried that it's not going down

Also, the fact that you can't remember having started these threads before might indicate that you should be more concerned about the onset of Alzheimers.

Simple answer for lowering your heart rate

[OwlHoot]

No worries.

I think he was being sarcastic.

To keep your heart rate down, it's best to start by not reading many russell posts.

I did remember that one, I thought it was asking what is rather than how to lower, will look at that post though thanks.

No need to drag my name through the chutney , I don't want to tarnished my reputation.

running regularly knackers your knees and is not the best for cardio.

Get on that rowing machine instead, you'll notice the difference in no time.

WSSS

Interval training on a rowing machine, following the training programmes that concept2 provide will be very effective without buggering your knees.

Anyway, why do you care so much about achieving a certain resting heart rate?
Anything under about 65 is a sign of being quite fit.
