 Posted: 12/21/08 - 14:37 Post subject: Heart rate increases rapidly while running then decelerates
I am an experienced runner, 72, ex Masters. My heart rates jumps to 170+ but after a mile or so it drops to around 120 and then accelerates to a normal 140+ - for the next 4-5 miles.
Hard to continue with the high heart rate as my breathing becomes labored.
Any help would be appreciated.

Posted: 01/25/09 - 17:41 Post subject: Heart rate monitor
I had a bypass a couple of years ago. I talked the Dr. into letting me run not long after surgury and he agreed as long as I took it easy. Up to that point I rarely used the HRM on my Garman 305 and then it became religion. My heart rate would go ballistic right after I stated running and then level out a while later. Needless to say in that situation it was unnerveing.
I found out the culpret was the sensors did not work right when very dry. Once I tried lubricant (vasoline), or just licked em or the weather turned hot it didn't happen.
If that doesn't help I'd ask a cardiologist,
Good Luck,
Charley

Thanks for your response. Wish it helped, but our situtation is a little different. My heart monitor shows the 'spike', but more importantly I am forced to either slow down or walk.
Been to a couple of cardiologist's but nothing seems to help.
Appreciate you taking time to reply. Good luck.

A wonderful article…. In my life, I have never seen a man be so selfless in helping others around him to get along and get working.
