[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a higher resting heart rate, which means it's easier for me to hit and maintain the orange level numbers. Don't worry about it OP, some of those people are probably cheaters like me. :-)[/quote] +1. I hit the orange zone during warm up. I'm just walking at a sped of 4. Most of my time is spent in the red zone. I don't buy into it that much. I go by more how I'm feeling. When I really go all out, I know it.[/quote] The HR range for people like you (and me) needs to be adjusted. Im very fit. I do OT on my easy days. My HR runs high. It's easy for me to hit the red zone. A better measure of cardiovascular fitness is how fast yiur Har drops ehen yiu stop. Basically the way they calculate HR ranges at OT is a one size fits all. If the OP truly has a hard time getting into the orange, they are not working hard enough. However, that is doubtful. Ignore the zones, go on how you feel.[/quote]
