Should I see a cardiologist - problems with LHR training?? (Read 1949 times)

as I see this:

1) the *actually measured* MHR *can* and *will* become lower if you build a very good aerobic base so good *relatively* that your muscles can't push you into fully anaerobic mode anymore even though your body would physically be capable of reaching the original high MHR - then you may need anaerobic speedwork, well, according to the theory.

2) a high MHR does not *automatically* mean that your MAF will be higher too; I wanted to believe that it means that (my MHR is well over 200) but then I talked to a friend who also trained at a low HR and whose MHR was 208 before he started building a big aerobic base. now he can't really push it over 190. he can easily do great fast runs at 140bpm now. something that seemed impossible previously (same for me, seems impossible right now). oh and of course he's doing speedwork now.

I have no idea what any of the first post means, but I doubt it would indicate a need to see a cardiologist.

So wordy this time Trent. Last time the OP just got "Huh?" from you
