  • Lol I read your first post 3 times and I couldn't work it out for the life of me! Yes, will definitely be more careful with my eating.
  • That was my peak overall. Trust me, I felt pushed but definitely not on the verge of a heart attack! Lol. So I'm thinking it's probably faulty readings, possibly from my tight top, faulty HRM or maybe because I had a cold last week.. Lots of possibilities. I'll take my HRM manually next time and see how I go. Thanks for…
  • Oh and I know they aren't reliable, but most online calculators are saying 195-200 for my age.
  • I was interval running, but it was faster and my runs were longer than usual. My top was a bit on the tight side- I didn't realise this could influence readings but I'm glad I know now! I'll keep a closer eye on my HR during my next run, but hopefully it was influenced by something and not a regular occurrence.
  • I did get dizzy after my workout tonight. I feel lethargic, but I know I pushed myself too hard. No nausea/fever. I use a Suunto heart rate monitor with chest strap. Another thing, I am significantly under my calorie goal at the moment (I'm going to eat right now though). Could that cause a higher heart rate reading?
  • My average on my last 3 workouts has been around 180. Like I said though, I've never paid much attention before so I don't know if it's always been like that or not. I use a heart rate monitor.
  • Thanks Brilliantwords, that's really helpful! I guess it's a matter of trial and error.
  • Hi, I'm looking for a mentor who has experience losing weight while breastfeeding. I don't have heaps to lose but I'm having a hard time working out how to reduce calories and maintain my milk supply. For exercise, I do interval running, yoga and a bit of Crossfit. Please PM if you think you can help!
