    Have you ever wondered, "what is a good heart rate for my age"? This is a pretty common question many of us ask our doctor during checkups, but wouldn't it be nice to be able to keep tabs on it between those appointments on your own?
    Now as a doctor myself, I'm certainly not suggesting doing away with routine health checkups, especially if there's any cause for concern. But, I also believe in giving you some basic information that will empower you to keep tabs on things like your heart rate on your own. It's much easier to stay healthy when you're aware of your body's signals.
    That's why I put together this brief video to help you both determine what a good heart rate for your age is along with some strategies to measure and manage it. Again, this video is not meant to replace visits with your doctor, especially if you find yourself in a potentially dangerous range. That being said, it will give you some basics on how to better moderate your heart rate, and maybe catch a problem before it becomes more serious. Enjoy!

    The rule of 220 minus age was originally invented for cardiac patients, to prevent them from over exerting their suspect hearts during light exercise. Doctors would typically take this rule, then subtract a percentage heart rate from it as a factor of safety, to not put patients at risk of further cardiac damage. In reality hearts are similar to other parts of humans, like arms or legs, they are different from person to person. I for instance am 64, therefore my max heart rate according to your rule should be 156, in reality it is 187 found from maximum stress testing, racing as fast as i can up a long hill and my resting heart rate has been as low as 36. When exercising at my aerobic threshold ( the intensity i can maintain for at least a few hours) my heart rate is 171 bpm , even that is well above your 220 rule figure. I have been a cycling time triallist all my life to quite a high level. For fit individuals, the 220 minus age rule is completely and utterly wrong.

    About a month ago I was weighing about 230, my resting heart rate was 72-75 bpm depending on the day. Blood pressure was always elevated or pre hyper tension. I ate horrible, didnt exercise, drank way too much coffee and would only sleep 4-5 hours a night. I then changed my diet (not go on a diet) cut out all caffeine, only drink water, and have very well balanced healthy clean diet. Lean meats, veggies, fruits, grains etc. I supplement now. Do 20-30 mins cardio 5-6 days a week. I keep active even when at the office or home. Just started doing the Fit Father 24 min workout a few days ago. And now have a normal blood pressure, resting heart rate of 60 bpm, have lost 18 lbs, think clearer, sleep better and for longer, have more energy, and just overall feel better then I have in years! I am 39 by the way.

      Jerry taks baby steps..not like the show Biggest Loser. Gotta create a plan. Never feel the pressure to over train and workout. You will see your body resist the sudden effort. Start with walking, then walking on as slope etc then slow jogging. Never feel the pressure to run. Lot of people do this and they don't enjoy physical activity anymore. Best of luck.

  • @ericrydman7098
    @ericrydman7098 Před 17 dny

    Yes to *HR bounce intervals* . I have done this in most all my workouts for years (weights, KB, calisthenics, sometimes running and cycling).
    You set a *base HR* . For me now, on a basic barbell program, that is 70 for work sets, 90 for warm up sets. Whenever I finish a work set, I wait for HR to go back down to 70 to start the next work set. My HR goes into the 140s on my hard work sets.
    If running on a track or doing KB swings, e.g., you can do *HR bounce pyramids* . Three wind sprints between 100 and 120, then three between 110 and 130, etc., to, say, three between 130 and 150, then back down. The pattern keeps it engaging, time goes by pretty fast, and it is very adjustable to all levels of fitness.

    I think it's important to identify what a true resting heart rate is. My GP told me that unless I find time in the day to sit quietly and relaxed for 30 minutes or more (not on a full stomach) then the only true resting heart rate I'll be able to measure is within a couple of minutes of waking up in the morning. At that time mine is usually a few BPM either side of 60, but it's unlikely to get much under 70 for the rest of the day, usually between 70-80 and as high as 90 while 'resting' after a big evening meal. I think unless people know that, they could fall into the trap of thinking their resting HR is actually higher than they think.

      The best thing to do is get a device that monitors your heart rate when you're asleep. That is the true resting situation. I have a sedentary job and once I tested my pulse at 5 am just waking up and it was 60 bpm. But after lunch whe I sit down it oscillates between 80 and 90. So yes, that cannot be ideal to test for pulse. I'm pretty sure if I start exercising, my sleep HR will fall to 55 or even 50. I'm 41 years old.

This past year I’m coming off a hamstring injury that has sidelined me a bit and decreased my fitness. My bike, run and swim is around 15% lower than usual. Strangely when I do intervals now with less fitness my HR gets high but my RPE is lower than the usual ratio. In other words let’s say I hit 170 BPM I normally rate that feeling 7-8. But now it feels like 6-7. I recently had an EKG and all looked good. I feel good working out, but my concern is why my RPE feels less at same HR during intervals and the power or pace is so much less

    I'm a huge fan of you and your videos, and you have become my most trusted source of info on lifting. But I strongly disagree on using the old 220 minus age to determine maximum heart rate. That formula has been widely discredited. I'm a highly fit 66 year old male with a lab tested maximum heart rate of 178 and a resting HR in the 38-40 range. My max HR by the formula would be 154, 24 bpm too low! That's below my lactate threshold, which I train at routinely. My cycling and run training is all HR based and using the max HR predicted by the formula would throw off all my training zones and undermine my training. Clearly not everyone is going to pay for and endure the discomfort of testing max HR on a treadmill in a lab, but there are better formulas out there. But other than this one small exception, I find the info in your videos to be exceptionally good, well researched, and very useful. Thanks for everything!

      Necroposting but I'll throw out my data point. I'm 44 with a resting heart rate of 60-63. I strength train 3x/week and do running/cycling 1-3x/week. The formula predicts my maximum heart rate is 178. During my last run, I hit 203 and the last 15 minutes of my run were solidly above 178. Once I break into a walk or stop my heart rates drops right away.

    Great Stuff. I have had doctors tell me my heart rate is too low (was as low as 48 resting, now 54-56.). Not Me. I fall in the threshold that you have on the chart for an athlete.

    On the Resting Heart Rate chart, there needs to be another row above 'Athlete' :-)
    Age 59, resting heart rate averaging 46 over the past year.
    If I don't exercise during a day, it won't rise over 100.
    Normal limit is 175.

    When I was younger and did a lot of demanding exercise my resting heart rate was mid 30s but I was certainly not an elite athlete. Now at 73 my resting heart rate is around 50. I exercise daily, including relatively light weights and cardio. A couple of years ago I had a spell of illness and ‘injuries‘, including a hip replacement, which reduced my exercise levels for a while and my resting heart rate increased to around 60 but dropped again as soon as I was able to step up my exercise levels. It has always been a source of curiosity to me and can only assume it it congenital.

    My average resting heart rate is generally around 42. My present age is 53 years. When i was younger, my best resting heart rate was 38. Then i was fully into my bicycling. My heart rate is as it is, via genetics. My mother has a low heat rate also. Pity it does not slow the ageing process. 😉😉

    I came here because my heart rate was getting low while exercising. I was off from doing it for about 3 months since I had an inguinal hernia surgery. Finally, I started a very slow workout but I was feeling extremely exhausted and short of breath and I noticed that my heart rate was dropping to 70 -80 then when I stopped to catch up I noticed started to go up to about 137 which normally as soon as I started exercising my heartbeats started rising up to 120-156. Do you think that is something bad? I am 56 of age. Thank you so much for your videos.

    I've only done 3 weeks of HIIT training and my bpm is at 48. I used to vape a lot and basically slowly weaned by self off nicotine while exercising. I had a bit of a health scare when I was told by my nurses that the sharp pain I was feeling in my chest was due to an enlarged heart so this makes me feel better.
    Edit: He mentions HIIT Training with weights, if you don't already have strong muscles I recommend just doing bodyweight training.

    I’m taking no credit here, but at age 62 my resting is as low as 45 typically it’s under 50. I don’t really exercise that much, but I walk a fair bit. 30 minutes at 6kph on a treadmill at 7.5% incline. It’s actually split into three parts, the machine stays the same speed, but starts at 5% for ten minutes (115 bpm), then 7.5% for ten (135 bpm) and finishes at 10% for last ten minutes (165 bpm). I do that about three times per week. I sauna afterwards and actually sauna most days (followed by cold 3-4 minute shower). I have been doing this for a couple of months, prior I have not really done anything, had desk job for 30 years, with last ten being intermittent hard physical.

    Hello Doc- in order to get a lower BPM say 55-65, do you recommend exercising every day (5-6 days)? I run at least 3-4 miles -say on Monday/ Tuesday only. I do get 60's number now and then but most of the time it's in 70-80 range. Also resting heart rate is considered when you sit down and no moving?

    • @Fitfatherproject
      @Fitfatherproject  Před 9 měsíci

      Hey William, thanks for writing in and great question! And I think you hit the nail on the head that daily exercise is wonderful to help lower RHR. However, it doesn't have to be super intense as some LISS-work can help in this department. Check out the video below for more info. And the best time to check your RHR is upon first waking in the morning as this will provide the most accurate measurement.

    I'm 67 years old. My HR averages about 50 BPM. My doctor thinks this is wonderful. She also thinks my low BP is great. 90/50 on average. I think this is too low. I'm fatigued most of the time. I walk every morning, and I'm a professional wind player. Also, my weight is pretty much ideal. BTW, my HR has been down in the low forties frequently. None of this would bother me if I could sleep well, digest my food well, and I wasn't so damned tired. I think the problem is minerals. I should add that I had thyroid cancer in 2015. Nothing has been the same since then. Tried keto, carnivore and in the past, vegetarian.

    700 m clear track then 200 metres with obstacles then 600 metres on track. The training would be to run the course with full gear then run the course with rifle only . Then run with uniform and boots. 4.5 km .
    We trained 3 x per week for 6 weeks then took the test.
