Anyone with experience with this blood pressure medication? Works well on BP, but also keeps heart rate way down. Almost impossible to get Hr over 100 now. Prior to medication, I'd work out in the 120-140 range regularly.
My question is whether aerobic exercising while keeping HR down artificially, actually improves heart health. Don't you need a elevated HR to derive benefit?
