Regular posters may be familiar with the girl I'm dating, Claudette (aka The French Canadian Princess), She is a Princess, absolutely beautiful, great athlete and a good friend. Her heart rate is unusually high. She's 29 and I'm 41- When we ride side by side on the Computrainer her heart rate is sky-high: 179-189 bpm at a speed and workload when mine is only 148 bpm, even though she is trying to draft me. She is healthy and has good endurance, she was skiing me into the ground over the weekend at altitudes between 5,000 and 9,000 feet. Why is her heart rate so high? Is this cause for concern? Is it just (small) stroke volume? The little girl has a heart like a hummingbird!
