Hello!
I've done insanity before but never with a heart rate monitor. I saw on Fb that Shaun T is starting today so I thought that would be great to do it with him! I bought a heart rate monitor this morning and did the fit test. During the FIT TEST my heart rate was out of the zone.. it has my zone between 130-170 and my heart rate was 180 for most of it..
Is that normal? I'm 5'9 136 if that helps at all.. Why am I out of my range and what is the range for anyway?
Thanks for the help!

I have been doing Insanity now for 4 weeks. Just starting the 5th week today of Recovery. My HR normally is between 165-180. I dont think 180 is abnormal. One workout my HR went up to 203 which was a little worrisome but after resting for about 10 min. it eventually went back down. Actually with that workout I burned 580 calories and normally I only burn betweeen 370-480 calories. I am 5'3" and weigh 135.0
