@satdust Thank you! Glad to hear I’m not alone :)

@camillanorigera Ok thank you, I usually feel fine running and having 180HR, it’s not unless I hit 195 then I can tell I don’t feel good and need to slow down.

@auna Yes I started at 232lbs, walking for 10 mins, running at 8kmph for as long as I could (minutes lol) gradually increasing, and can now run 5k in 30mins or run at a slower pace for 1hr30ish. I’ve definitely improved a lot, and I’ve lost a lot of weight.

@midalantian That’s helpful thank you, there’s no one to run with right now, but I could probably phone my brother. I’ll try that thank you

@dawn16 It feels normal to me, but my mentality is I’m at the gym to sweat, if I’m not working hard why am I even there? When I started working out I was 60lbs heavier, I would walk for 10 minutes and then run for as long as I could, day 1 was 2 minutes, then I would walk again until my partner...

@dawn16 I honestly don’t pay much attention to the rest of the stuff, for instance my run on Monday said I needed to 3.5days to recover, but I did stride repeats the next day because I felt fine to do so, I usually self report as fine even though my HR was high, because I do feel fine. I use...

@dawn16 I need the watch to actually get myself to go. I spent years wanting to run and never actually doing it. I agree that it can cause more anxiety and stress than it’s worth sometimes.

@tkm Thank you. I have quite a deviated septum and have always been a bit of a mouth breather haha. I focus a lot on managing my breath when I’m running to not puff and pant, in through the nose out through the mouth etc, but I usually end up doing a double breath in and a single breath out...

@anon103 The highest my HR went was 202, and I started feeling really unwell (a sprint finish). When I was a bit heavier my runs would frequently take my heart rate into 190+. I’m 32F. I don’t get that sickness feeling when it’s around the 180 but I certainly couldn’t carry a conversation.

@dawn16 Thank you, I’m going to try incline treadmill and see if that works, if not I’ll speak to my dr, thanks.

@ulkon Yes I could try that thanks. I guess I’m so hung up on running that never even occurred to me haha I’ll try it out.

@katie4469 I love running outside but my local park is very hilly so I usually end up just the same. When I’m outside I don’t check my watch ad much though so that’s a bonus I guess. And thanks for the sub recommendation!

@eshaun92 I want to run in zone 2 because it is my goal to run a marathon, and I think that 4 hours at 180+bpm probably isn’t a good thing? My longest run was 13.3km and took me 1hr30ish (some warm up and cool down there) and most of that was 180bpm +. I want to improve my fitness so I’m able to...

@summer37087 Thank you, that makes a lot of sense.

@summer37087 Thank you, I’ve mentioned in some comments that I can run with 180+ for over an hour, but I certainly couldn’t hold a conversation. I am much much fitter now, I used to run for 2mins at 8kmph and my hr was over 190, even went into 200 a couple of times and I felt awful, like death...

@dawn16 Thank you for the advice :)

@takkula Ok

@takkula So I should just walk then? Incline to get hr higher as walking usually gets me about 115hr?

@catzetier I use my garmin to measure my HR, and when I’m on the treadmill I will periodically hold the sensors to see if they are both reporting the same HR, they are usually within 2-3 beats of each other. I certainly could not carry a conversation, and I try and control my breathing by...

@christan4lyfe101 Wow that looks amazing!
