    176-180. Not ideal but it is what it is. Resting I'm 50.

    You should stay in the 80-90% max rate for maximum weight loss benefits. Also, someone who is super fit can run a 10K without getting higher than 75% of max whereas someone who is not fit could go up to 95%. It is important not to work your heart at very high utilization for extended periods of time.

    Two weeks ago, mine hit 193 (116% of my "max" heart rate according to my Polar FT4).

    Sadly, I was only sort of jogging. It was my first attempt at C25, which was walking for 90 seconds followed by jogging for 60 seconds.

    Had I been really running ... like for my life ... I'd probably have dropped dead of a heart attack.


    As you've probably figured out, I am VERY out of shape, but I'm working on it.

    I've gotten as high as 177-180 but typically during exercise i stay between 140-170 depending on what i'm doing. If its Insanity, around 160-170 but with biking i stay around 140-150.

    My max is 200 to 205. I routinely hit in the 180s when I run but recover quickly. My resting is quite low too - mid 50s to low 60s.

    Age 38.

    This is pretty funny! I understand totally!! My "jog" is very very slow!
