WOW!!!

Yea I was the one who posted that lol. I cleaned it and it is working but it kept going in and out and I had to keep adjusting it bc it of my bra.

Yes I know!! I think its bc I wear a bra with my sports bra but I hate if they move at all and I dont like looking like a 10 year old boy with the 2 sports bras. I want a polar bra so bad!!!

Ok I understand your in the medical profession but dont knock down what I said. I know how to take a pulse too; from my CNA training. I tested my app by taking my pulse right after.

Yep that is exactly why you are getting the pain. Too much leg exercises. You do not need a doctor. Try my workouts. I have a feeling you would like them bc Its calisthenics.

Check out my latest work out! I will give you 20 bucks if your heart rate doesnt go past 160!! Maybe 40 lol

No Athletes can go down to 30's that just means you have a super healthy heart.

For woman it is 70 - 100 The lower the healthier your heart is. Mine is 64 what was yours. Your suppose to take it befoe you get out of bed or havent been doing anything for an hour or so. There are smart phone apps that take your heart rate. The one on the IPhone is dead on!

What shoes?

What are your workouts? You need to start doing exercises that are hard on the knees in separate workouts. For example don't do heavy cardio like running (hard on the knees) the same day you are doing intense lunges. Also start a journal so you can mark what days it hurts and see what you can move around or eliminate. I…

Im excited!!

My HRM is out of order at the moment. Usually a workout like that can range from 650 to 800 Give or take. I am lost with out my HRM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :sad:

Gotcha ya! I was like hey im just asking lol

Thanx :) The winter was bad this year. I gained 10 lbs :sad: so I have to get back down! Having a thin bf doesnt help bc he thinks I can eat what he eats. YOU MEN JUST DONT GET IT!! LOL

Just when I thought I could take a break lol jk. Thanx for all the info guys. I am every zone during my workouts so I am covered either way. I do interval training and circuits, yoga, you name it.

Who is dismissing facts?

Maximal Heart Rate = 195 Intensity Target Heart Rate 50-55% 128-135 60-65% 141-148 70-75% 155-162 80-85% 168-175 http://www.fitwatch.com/qkcalc/thr.html SO where should I be to lose lbs 55% or 65%? That makes sense bc when I first started working out I lost so much lbs I was 114 at my lowest and I wasnt working out nearly…

My resting heart rate is 61 (patting self on the back thats really good) and it says I should be at heart rate 130. It is just to low for me. I am usually in the 170's to 180's. Yesterday I didnt go over 158 and I felt frustrated bc it wasnt hard enough. If thats what I need though I have to work harder and not working out…

Last night I washed it! This morning I put it on and it worked!!!!!!!!!!! BUT 20 mins later my HR went to 00 :( I was so mad then I realized it probably dried up. I heard that id its not consistanly wet it wont pick up. So the ultimate test is tonight!!!

Lol I say that all the time so I was like I like her then I realized you already my friend!! :flowerforyou:

DAMN HER!! (lol jk) In order to get the best reading is a heart rate monitor. I burn way more calories than it says on here bc of the intensity I do them at. Your body can be doing the same workout from 3 days ago and be at a different level. As of right now circuit training is ok for now but if you are resting and not…

Sorry I thought you were the girl in your pic. What is your goal, how often do you work out, are you trying to build a lot of muscle, and are you going for the fit look or the muscular look? I am asking because depending on your goal would determine if you should be interval/circuit training.

Wait I am not too sure what you are asking? What are you usually doin as a workout?

Circuit traning example: This is done 3 times; one after another going; from squats to biceps and so on.. 1. Squats 12 2. Bicep curls 12 3. Jump rope 30 skips 4. Walking lunge 12 5. Basic crunch 12 6. push ups 12 7. bike 30 seconds So your workout is circuit training if you are not taking periods of rest. Another way to do…

Exactly me too! I thought it could mess up whatever electrical stuff that is going on in there lol

Next to the stairs its one of the best cardios you can do. Because it is all you and there is no help from machines. Its even better than jogging :)

I just found this out so I will get back to you in a couple days. I was going to try and clean it good in the sink and then wash it so it might be a couple days until I know. I was going to send mine in to and she said to wash it in the washer first.,

Yes make sure you adjust your rope to your height or it will whip you and not work correctly. Also if you get frustrated and whip yourself 100000000x put the rope aside and pretend you have the rope in your hands to get your foot work down for a week or so.

No sir.. She said just rinsing doesn't get rid of all the salt and to use detergent or hand soap.

Glad to see my im not the only one!!! :embarassed:
