| I agree with finewine as far as heart rate. I have been using a lower haert rate program which is supposed to burn a higher percentage of fat than a very high heart rate. It is called a metabolic workout. For me, the ideal range is also between 128 - 142 bpm. I was working out at 155 - 170, and the trainer I am using said that I was burning more carbs at that rate and less fat. Resting heart rate is around 85 - 100 depending on what shape you are in. Your individual optimal heart rate depends on your age, weight and individual goals. | |||
