On my trips to the market I always stop to measure my BP. I seem to always be around 180 sys, and 80 dys. My heart rate is usually extremely low at 44. Should I be worried?
Just a little background information, I’m an avid runner. I run four times a week. I vary my intensity levels from hill running to jogging long distance to sprints. I generally run at least 3 miles per run though regardless of intensity training. I also play tennis on the weekends. I suppose I’m frustrated because I can never seem to get my systolic low. I have a larger build though and weigh 215 lbs and 6′ high. Would losing bulk help these numbers?
Hmmm I may not be remembering my readings correct then. I personnaly feel like I’m in great shape and I have no problem running long distances. thanks for the help. If I get the same readings on my way home tonight, I’ll go see a doctor. Thanks for the replies.
