Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Over Weight. Heart Rate Shoots Up While Exercising. Why?
Im 23 and i weigh about 145 after a light work out my heart rate was at 175 which made every machine shut off i would stop for awhile but five minutes into another work out it quickly shot back up to 175 is this normal? I am a smoke and i do take adderal twice a day im sure that causes some of it but i would like some advice/input on this
- There are several reasons - Adderall and smoking are the prime ones, as you know.
- The response is also typical of Anxiety / You will benefit from Psychiatric assessment and assistance / Beta blockers could also help in such cases.
- Cardiac assessment is also in need - exercise under doctor's supervision may confirm / may rule out exercise induced arrhythmias / give you idea of maximal predicted rates / and reassurance
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
