Average Resting Heart Rate - Page 2

something strange is going on with mine, i was at around 60 during the racing season, now during the off-peak i am up around 70. Why is this?

The weaker your aerobic system the higher your heart rate will be. During my peak last July my resting HR was 48-52. I've not been riding as much lately so it's probably back up to around 60 now.

I'm 18 mines in the high 40s and my blood pressure is 110/60.

Also my body fat is 5.5% last time i checked with 8lbs of fat, anyone else knwo theirs?

Not to be rood or any thing this section is for "next geration" not oldies!

firstly congratulations on replying to a post 5/6months later. well done.

we have also discussed the topic of age and posting in this forum and it is has been said that it is ok for me to post.
does it make that much difference if i do post or not?

and try and spell, 'rude' does not have an 'o' in it anywhere.

enjoy your riding!

Mines now 45...i wanna try and get it down into the 30s

Are you sure your checking it right? Lie down and relax a minute or two, and check it like that. 70's sound fairly high.


As for my heart rate i found it at 44bpm last week, though it's usually in the high 40's. My max is 209 though, i want to try to get it to 210 by the end of this year. Should be fun...lol.

I am 16, and mine is 37

This forum is for cyclist U23. Junior and Espoir riders. Cause im 19! Mine is now at 52

I'm 60 and mine is 51, blood pressure 114/60, cholesterol 163. Just a note to promote the benefits of proper diet and cycling for good health.
Ride on dude!

can be just lack of sleep or change in temperature.

Mine is usually higher when im recovering, so you should check it on a rest day.

It seems to be lower when im lying down too

im 18, my average resting heart rate used to be about 72, last time i knew, which was last year, but i just checked it now, and i got a reading of about 50! wow, shows how much fitter i am now since i took cycling up seriously!
