How long does it take everyone to get to 70% there target heart rate when doin am cardio????
it depends what I’m doing, how I feel that day ect, ect,
anywhere from 4-10 minutes, i notice if I take green tea, it goes up quicker...
rite now im on a ecy stack and it take me like 15 mins to get to 70% i think thats a lil long eh??? incline set to the max and speed is @ 3mph....sumtimes i will put it @ 5mph for like 30 secs to get it up but then it just drops back down... then after about 15-20 mins it willl stay where i want it aah i dunno
i get there within a couple of minutes, the trick is to set the cardio at a high setting until your heart is way over 70%, then taper down to your optimum level. Works for me.

yea depends on what im doing. Ive just started swimming laps to change up my cardio and id like to try my hand at triathlons or adventure racing or something....anyway, swimming and my hr is beyond 70% with one lap!! heh. im sure after a month or so that i'll get better at swimming and my hr wont jump so high.
sounds like you are pretty fit. if so thats the downfalls i guess of being so..heh. maybe try swimming..?
D9 its taking you a while to get up that high b/c of your low level of speed.
I usually give myself about 3-4 minutes or so before attemting to get up to THR. Especially since our HR is the lowest right when we wake up. Dont want to shock it too much. A nice little 3 minute warm up and I'm off.
