Good afternoon,
I'm 32. I train about 3 years. My pulse wasn't more than 175 bpm for all this time even during hard interval training.
Is it normal or should I try to "accelerate" my pulse up to maximum values corresponding to my age?

Good afternoon,
Only maximum heart rate is not enough to evaluate you level of training. We should know your heart rate during "slow trainings". If your heart rate is 145-150 bpm during easy runs, an upper value of 175 bpm will limit you to a large extent not allowing you to have a stock while running. Since it is heart rate increase that the main resource for maintaining a pace over long distances.
If your level of training is high enough and you can do recovery runs at a heart rate lower than 145 bpm the question of heart rate increase may be not so relevant for you and you can achieve your goals without changing maximum heart rate.
Is it possible to train exceeding your maximum heart rate? What excess is permissible and how long?
Oleg Sergeevich, good afternoon.
Thank you for your previous replies. I'd like to ask you the next question about a heart rate.
As you taught me, I'm trying to train so that my heart rate doesn't exceed 145 bpm during cross running and it lasts 1,5 hour.
But my heart rate reaches 170-180 bpm during interval running and 140-150 bpm in a resting state. I do interval running 1-2 times a week and training lasts 45 minutes. Is it OK for my age? I'm 55.
Good afternoon.
What should my heart rate be if I'm 40 years old and my pace during long-running is about 4 min/km?
Good afternoon.
Good afternoon.
Which type of running is more suitable for weight loss: interval or jogging? How often can I do interval run?
