Hi,
Im 21 and 155lbs, im not too fat, infact most people say i need to gain weight (i have a little bit of a tummy, but nothing too bad, the rest of my body is pretty much under-developed).
Anyway, ive done no excercise at all for about 5/6 years, and lived off junk food. About 3 weeks ago i joined a gym and have been doing quite a bit of CV, my heart rate is normally about 165-170 while on the bike and stepper thing. Anyway, today i thought i would try to jog to see how ive come along (i tried jogging before joining the gym and could only do about 3/4 mins jogging before having to stop). When i got on i found that jogging was no problem and i done a good 30 minute jog without getting tired or needing to stop at all, but one thing that did scare me was that my heart rate went as high as 183, althought i was still comfortable at this 183 beats per minute it seemed a little high to me, what do you guys think?
Cheers
