Is Heart Rate Of 125-135 Bpm A Cause For Concern?
Hi, I'm 64 resting heart rate of 75-80 with good health, only medical problem is hypothyroidism well controlled.
Is a heart rate of 125-135 on elliptical with moderate resistance too much? Rate returns to normal after about 2-3 min post.
If range is ok, how long is too long at that rate or should I keep it lower?

hai,
As your resting heart rate is normal.
and hypothyroidism will lead you to slow heart rate. as your on medication no need to worry about it.
as your post session heart rate 125 to 135 seems to be perfectly okay.
If you didnt feel any discomfort after that then it is normal.
howeverhe elliptical will automatically change the resistance levels to keep your heart rate at a specific number or range, based on your age.
