Blood provides the body with </em><em><strong>oxygen</strong></em><em> and </em><em><strong>nutrients</strong></em><em>, as well as assisting in the removal of </em><em><strong>metabolic wastes</strong></em><em>."</em></p> <p>Generally speaking, a lower heart rate at rest (not exercising or anxious/in panic) implies a more efficient heart function and overall better fitness.</p> <p><strong>Optimal (Average) Resting Heart Rate</strong> → between 60-100 bpm </p> <p><em><strong>Fitness/Exercising</strong></em> (for 20-30 yo; numbers decrease with age as you should look to strain your heart less):</p> <ul> <li>Target Heart Rate Zone when exercising → 100-170 bpm </li> <li>For Moderate physical activity → 50-70% of recommended maximum (~140bpm)</li> <li>For Intense physical activity → 70-85% of maximum (~170bpm) </li> <li>Average Maximum HR → 200 bpm </li> </ul> <p><em><strong>Finding you Heart Rate:</strong></em></p> <ol> <li>Take your pulse on the inside of your wrist (on the thumb side) </li> <li>Use the tips of your first 2 fingers and press lightly over the artery </li> <li>Count your pulse for 30 seconds and multiply by 2 </li> </ol> <p><em><strong>Reducing/Improving your Heart Rate Long-Term:</strong></em></p> <ul> <li>Exercise (Interval training is especially good at improving the heart's efficiency)</li> <li>Stay Hydrated </li> <li>Limit intake of stimulants (caffeine,nicotine,..) </li> <li>Limit alcohol intake </li> <li>Eat a healthy balanced diet </li> <li>Get enough sleep </li> <li>Maintain healthy body weight (BMI) </li> <li>Reduce or resolve susbtantial long-term stress </li> <li>Go outdoors </li> <li>Yoga, Medidation</li> </ul> <p><br></p> <p>That will be all for this topic today!
