[Closed] Monitoring your resting heart rate.

Onzadog · 2011-03-29T05:34:10Z

I've been doing this casually with an Android app. For a while. It might not be hugely accurate but it has been a fairly consistent 45 bpm first thing in the morning. However, after a pretty full on week, it's now up to 60. Not the end of the world but I'm not commuting in today as my legs feel heavy. How easy should you take it in this situation? I assume you don't stop altogether. How long should I expect it to take to get back to normal? Should I consider skipping the run tonight? I'm not training for anything in particular, just like to be active.

Hooked up a HRM last night while I was sat watching telly and it read about 48, so that's a bit better.
Tried the first thing in the morning test, but I think the alarm going off, switching it of, thinking of work and/or the morning glory send it a bit high.
