[quote=Anonymous]So I have been doing urg workouts and elliptical workouts because I like the no impact nature. I’m a fat old man, 47 years old, BMI 31, with resting heart rate of 68. I’m trying to get to zone 2 cardio to improve my cardio health, which I think is 130 BPM on my Fitbit. But I was going crazy on the elliptical tonight, way faster than anyone else and could only get up to 125, and that wasn’t sustainable at all — it was like all out arm and leg action like a crazy person. Do I need to run, increase resistance even more (I’m at about st 6 dots?)? It just is a crushing effort to get my heart rate in the zone, is it supposed to be this hard? Is my lung capacity maybe too low?[/quote]
