I recently traded in the new Up3 for the FitBit Charge HR. I've been curious what my HR is on my runs. It has gotten up to and holds at ~180 BPM and if I do the calculation my max heart rate s/b 160-ish, I think.
I forget most of what I knew about max HR, but obviously my max is not 160 because I am typing this, therefore I am still alive. I've been running pretty faithfully for about 2 years now. I have weeks that I've slacked off, but always pick it back up. I only run about 3 miles per day and try for 4 days per week, at least.
I have a nice low resting pulse. It gets down to ~56 BPM.
Can someone help me out with what this is doing to me and/or should I change anything? I don't run fast, probably average 10:30 MM, sometimes less, sometimes more. Should I try to slow it down even more?
Thanks!
