Hey Guys:
oops I for to add heart to the thread title.
I wanted to ask you a question. Sorry if its a stupid question but I thought I should ask it anyway just in case. I am wondering if I should be worried about my high heart rate. When I look at the Garmin stats of other guys I do not see anyone with a rate as high as mine is. I am in not bad shape and I am fat or obese at 205 and 6'4". I am also 36 years old.
I went out for a 80K ride today and noticed that my HR was around 160 the entire time. This certainly makes difficult to go any faster than I currently am. I feel fine when I am not biking and biking. I have no SOB or any chest pain. Usually when I am spinning I am around 95 to 100 as you will see in the stats. I a rode around 2500km this year so its no like I am just starting out either.
Take look and let me know what you think. Should I go to a doc? He already thinks I am hypochondriac so I am don't want go unless I absolutely have to
PS Don't make fun of my lame numbers
