is it possible for a 50 year old to get their heart rate to 217?
my mum just came to tell me that she got her heart rate to 217 in zumba.
I called bul**** and said that the HRM was either incorrect or she nudged the strap or something... she said that she was "puffed".
I'm 20 and can recall times I've gotten my HR slightly above 200 doing interval training and have felt sick but she didn't feel sick or dizzy.
thoughts?
