steve45 Nov 2018 11:36am, 4 Nov 2018 2,883 posts	0 steve45 Going back a bit--Flatlander, what you say about a "reliable" HRM is relevant (I hope!). My quite old HRM makes me worry! My HR shoots up to way over my level 4/tempo running ability during easy runs ..eg going along at 120-125 bpm and then s long continuous spike to 165 plus for a couple of minutes, only dropping again if I slow to a walk! Personally I reckon the damn thing is faulty because I feel perfectly ok and not breathing hard etc! A new one soon! J2R, that was an impressive half marathon at such a heart rate in your age group (?). Saint- I heard from a reliable source that doctors in Paris/ France are "easily persuaded" to rubber stamp a runner's medical form for the Paris Marathon. Canute-thanks for such an impressive write up about the various heart issues. I follow what you say but find it difficult to translate into how I want to run. In short I stopped busting a gut a gut in my running programme (I no longer race and haven't for many years) because of concerns about leaving this world out there on some trail or road! In racing days I'm sure I over did things (sometimes such as doing 62 minutes for ten miles in Newport one year and 37 minutes for 10k in Barry...those sort of times, not very fast but fastish) Now approaching seventy and having run for forty years I don't think I have a heart condition that has gone undetected but don't want to overstress it either! What sort of running should I be looking at in respect of HR?

Cog Noscensme AHA Nov 2018 1:38pm, 13 Nov 2018 544 posts	0 Cog Noscensme AHA It seems OK on daytime HR monitoring although the wrist monitor records RHR as lower than I've ever managed with short periods on the chest strap. Does anyone one else think its a bit low on RHR? It doesn't really matter since the trend is the interesting bit.
Badger Nov 2018 1:42pm, 13 Nov 2018 9,976 posts	0 Badger I'm skeptical about the very lowest values it gives, but tend to believe the overnight sleeping RHR as in line with the lowest values I get with finger on wrist. Not much use for running, it shakes around too much.
Cog Noscensme AHA Nov 2018 1:45pm, 13 Nov 2018 546 posts	0 Cog Noscensme AHA Interesting Badger. I've noticed that my RHR is always higher through the day and then shows a lower reading next morning. I assume that I hit the lowest value after I fall asleep and that my morning RHR, even though I'm still in bed, is higher for some reason.

Everything you need to know about training with a heart rate monitor. Remember the motto "I can maintain a fast pace over the race distance because I am an Endurance God". Mind the trap door....

Gobi lurks here, but for his advice you must first speak his name. Ask and you shall receive.

A quote:

"The area between the top of the aerobic threshold and anaerobic threshold is somewhat of a no mans land of fitness. It is a mix of aerobic and anaerobic states. For the amount of effort the athlete puts forth, not a whole lot of fitness is produced. It does not train the aerobic or anaerobic energy system to a high degree. This area does have its place in training; it is just not in base season. Unfortunately this area is where I find a lot of athletes spending the majority of their seasons, which retards aerobic development. The athletes heart rate shoots up to this zone with little power or speed being produced when it gets there." Matt Russ, US International Coach
