Also, I am able to run on it for 60 minutes or more each day without much of tiredness, I feel I can run another hour, but I don't because I don't want to over work.
I could write pages about this, but I'll just answer the question simple. The answer is YES! it's possible and very likely.
You can forget the "normal values" of 60-100 beats pr minute. They are just the definition on what is sinus rhythm, or if below; sinus bradycardia, and above, sinus tachycardia. When you exercise, it's "normal" to have a heart rate above 100, and if you rest or sleep, it's normal to have a heart rate below 60. It's common to set the limit at 50 and not 60, by the way.
You are in great shape! Keep up the good work and forget your heart rate! :)
Thank you!
I should have recorded my heart before I start the workout.....
I heard that it is possible to go below 60 but I thou that was for "fit" people only.
Hi, my heart rate at rest (in the morning) is 50, and I don't consider myself especially fit. At night it's recorded as low as 37.
If you can run for 60 minutes and are capable of running 60 more minutes, you are in great shape. Athletes can have a resting heart rate of 35-40. I think Lance Armstrong had a resting heart rate in the 20s, but that was extremely low.
Thanks again!
Because of my low heart rate, I did some blood pressure measure on myself. It is low overall with Systolic around 110 (sometimes in the 90s, but never below 90) and Diastolic around 55 (it rarely go above 60). Should I be worry about my Diastolic number?
mine is 55 with dips into the mid 40s. I'm 5'8" 160 lbs, 42 yo male. It's never concerned me at all. I don't work out much at all. When I was in my 20s my resting was 70-80 and I used to work out like a crazy man. It's rather bizarre.
You didn't mention how fast you are "running" for 60 minutes. If you are going faster than 10 minutes per mile (6 mph) then I'd say you are in outstanding physical shape, and must have been born with a high capacity cardiovascular system. That is if you have "better than average" heat/lung capacity, your HR and BP would likely be lower and you should, with conditioning, be able to outrun the rest of us (I don't include myself in the "us" group, I'm much older and suffering reduced heart/lung capacity - early stages of congestive heart failure).
Thank you both!
It's not really running, I workout on the Gazelle by Tony Little (I can't run because I have floaters so Dr. told me not to) . I do get to approx 75% of my max heart rate (around 130) and stay there for about 40-50 minutes.
I am not a work out person, but it change after my last blood report (Blood sugar a bit on the high side, 101). So I started workout (60 minutes on the Gazelle), 7 days a week for 30 days. Then I noticed my low resting Heart rate. That is how it all begin.
I also forgot to mention that I was in a low food diet (a bit less then half of what I usually eat) for the last 30 days and I have lost approx 7 lbs.
Keep up the good work, sounds like you are on the right track :)
The only reason to worry a little about low blood pressure (in healthy hearts) is if it's causing symptoms like severe dizziness or fainting, and even then, it's usually "cured" by increased water and salt intake, but it's worth mentioning to your doctor.
Otherwise low blood pressure is a good thing, preventing heart disease.
