About three weeks before I left China for the summer my heartrate
monitor broke. As bad luck would have it it arrived at the bike shop
fully repaired mere hours after I left.
I realize that I didn't specifically train once in the nearly 6 weeks I
was away, nor in the week since I've been back.
I realize that I went from ~50km a day for 3 months to ~20km a day in
July to not riding at all in the entire month of August.
And I realize that I've made a sudden climate jump of about 9 degrees
centigrade on the highs and an even wider spread on the lows.
B-b-but...
In May, when I got the heartrate monitor my resting heartrate was 70-72
beats per minute. In June, when the monitor stopped working, my
resting heartrate was 68-70 beats per minute. And right now I'm
showing more like 83-85 beats per minute.
Could the above cause such a huge jump in resting heartrate or is it
likely to be some other cause?
