Do you have a high pulse? You do not know its correct values? How quickly does the body regain balance after the end of the effort? Find out what happens in the body when the pulse is too high. The question is answered by the drug. Anna Mitschke.
What does a high pulse testify to?
Hello. I have a question that seems obvious and trivial, but very important to me. I am 27 years old, I do competitive sports, with more effort I have high pulse and it’s hard for me to equalize. What does high heart rate really mean? I have a specialized watch that measures my pulse during training, when my pulse is high, it signals it with a special sound, but I don’t really know to what extent the parameters are exceeded.
What are the correct heart rate values when you can tell if your heart rate is high? I also don’t know exactly what happens to the body when the heart rate is above normal. Once I read that very much high pulse in athletes is the norm, is it true?
I would not worry about that, because I know that hard training, especially running, increases the pulse, but I am worried that my body returns to balance very slowly after exercise. What does high pulse mean in my case? Whether elevated pulse can it be a sign of a cardiovascular disease? Should he see a cardiologist? I am asking for a precise answer.
You will find the answer to the question under the video.
What does an elevated pulse indicate? – check the doctor’s answer
Pulse is a perceptible pulse movement of the artery wall caused by the wave of flowing blood and depends on the contractions of the heart and the elasticity of the arterial vessels. The heart rate is palpable when you place your fingers on large arteries located shallowly under the skin.
The most common pulse is the radial artery on the inside of the wrist on the thumb side. In an adult, the heart rate is also measured in the internal carotid, brachial, femoral, popliteal, dorsal foot, and posterior tibial arteries. By examining the pulse, the doctor assesses its parameters such as frequency, regularity, amplitude and duration of the systolic wave.
The assessment of the correct heart rate is the responsibility of the doctor, as it requires knowledge and experience. Normal heart rate while resting is 60-100 beats per minute. Values below the lower limit of the norm are called bradycardia, and values above the tachycardia. Pulse watches during exercise indicate the heart rate range for the moderate-intensity exercise where fat burning is most effective.
The device’s maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. The heart rate range for moderate intensity training is 50-69% of the calculated maximum heart rate. This method of calculating the training heart rate can be used in healthy people, not burdened with cardiovascular diseases, not taking chronic medications for high blood pressure.
If there is a positive history of cardiovascular events or burden of coronary heart disease, an electrocardiographic exercise test should be performed to determine physical capacity.
You should always see a general practitioner when you experience disturbing symptoms during exercise, such as pain in the chestpalpitations, dizziness, unconsciousness, shortness of breath. Pain in the legs when walking may indicate peripheral arterial disease. Systematic physical activity prevents many diseases, therefore it should be an important element of everyone’s lifestyle.
