REALLY high heart rate.

[carguy_z28]

Hey guys, Question for ya, I did a resting heart rate test today, and its WAY high, kinda scared me, it was at 97BPM!! How can I bring this down? here are some of my stats
6ft1in, 210 lbs, 12-15% fat. ??
age, 23, I am a smoker, I do drink on weekends, I dont run in the gym im focused on gaining mass, and I have a high metabilisom. Im on Deca, and Sust, and Acetate. on my 2nd cycle. Any info on how dangerous it is to have this high of a rate, and how to bring it down would be apreciated. Thanks guys.

cardio, endurance training.. works for me.. the cycle you are on shouldn't do anything... what were you doing just prior to you taking that reading???

Stop doing everything you are doing. (Smoking, drinking, no cardio)
Gear is going to raise your blood pressure as well so if you are that concerned with it i wouldnt be on this current cycle either. Just my .02

I was sleeping, I woke up and did my test.

[spywizard]

well, i was going to suggest that it might be hyperthyroidism, but you are probably too young for that..

could be sleep apthnia (sp) and you awoke scared or from a bad dream that could do it.. do you snore alot???

stop smoking..

[bigwillystyle]

my wife is a rn and said thats in the normal range...especially if your on test

[Bigjroach]

Spy, my wife knows someone who just had her thyroid removed at the age of 20, strange stuff can happen...

My heart rate increases with test the next day after each shot then gradually subsides after a few days until my next shot. 1/2 a dose of Atenolol tabs (Noten) brings it down. My B.P creaps up as well so it helps with that too. As I'v been getting more cycles under my belt, I don't suffer from it as much as I used too. Maybe it's due to tolerance, I'm not sure?

at 100 bpm, at rest you would be considered to have sinus tachycardia. At your age you should be in the 60 or low 70's better get off the cigs and do some cardio. Or your going to have major problems later on. You can do 20 minutes of aerobic training and not have to worry about losing mass. You really should get that down. Not trying to flame you just concerned about your health dude.

hmm, I've been supplementing with 600 mg of RYR and 100 mg of coQ10 for over a year now. And I think it works.. Oh, 1200 mg of RYR now since I'm currently on gear.

[rhed]

forgot to add my other daily supps that I think that helps me with bps:
flax seed 3 g
fish oil 4 g

I have other things that I take daily for immune system and joint support..
Oh yea, stop smoking.. I did..10 months now..

[stupidhippo]

too high HR can be detrimental in the long run... a recent estimate i saw was 110 bbm... anyway.. urs is too high IMO, i would keep an eye on it.
As far as gear raising only BP - I disagree.. My RHR is under 60, with gear it jumps up to 80 (no matter what gear I take) and my BP is almost uneffected (or only a slight increase). cardio might help u..

in the long run i would advise u to take care of this. if u are young and in pretty good shape u shouldnt have any problems now, but lets say u would have existing ischemic problems with the heart the high HR adds the oxygen needs of the cardiac muscle.. also quitting smokins is advisable.. but most likely when u quit gear ur HR should normalize.. advisable would be also to see that BP is ok and cholesterols..

[carguy_z28]

Thanks guys, Im tryin to quit smokin, any idias?? Guess Im still weak in the self control catagory! lol

[Hephens]

i quit smokeing about 2months ago feeln better but i had better days smokeing just have a few after training thats what i did and felt good but i new i couldnt smoke if i wanted to Bodybuild think like that.

[ebjack]

Test has raised my HR to around 100...and increased BP too..I don't smoke or drink and I do some cardio (had to slow it down..too much calorie expenditure)
I'm getting the BP looked at today..I'm hoping that whatever the doc gives me for BP will slow the HR down too.

[carguy_z28]

I was just worried that Id hit the gym one day or better yet, go on a 10km march, and keel over, Thats my big concern

[bpm1]

mine is pretty similar, it seems like its always racing when i try to goto sleep, but it is in the normal range, so guess its ok huh

[Maldorf]

Like others here have experienced, AAS make my heart rate go up too. I dont know for sure why this happens, and dont think ive ever seen any research that answers the question. For me, my HR will gradually get faster and faster during the cycle. It really ony becomes a factor when youre doing long cycles, which for me is 12 weeks or more. I have stopped cycles when it was getting as high as yours, and it returns to normal within 2 or 3 weeks. For me its a sign its time to get off.
The cigs certainly arent helping, but I doubt that they are having that great affect on your HR.

man, all you gotta do is just search around on the web and see what kind of toxins are found in cigarettes and see what you're really putting into your body. the average cigarette has well over 100+ toxins in it. i'm not sure what the tobacco companies excuses are, but there is no good excuse for that. it's just sick. kick the disgusting habit and it will dramatically help your cardiovascular system in the long haul, let alone your life expectancy.

just curious, how is it that someone who's into bodybuilding to the point where they're using AAS would be willing to damage their body with cigarettes in the first place? i don't get it ?

I know its stupid, but its a habit I picked up a long time ago. And Im bodybuilding to be in better shape, its not a lifestyle for me, but somthing I enjoy doing. I use AAS, because I want my results faster than doing it naturally, call me lazy or whatever, but thats my reasoning.

i understand where you're coming from. i smoked when i was younger (13-14yrs old or so). to me, it was just a social thing and i wasn't really aware of it's potential for addiction nor the extent of it's health devastating effects in the long run. after all, most of us think we're invincible at that age. if it wasn't for the fact that i have an anti-addictive personality (yes, i'm serious), i could be in the same boat as you.

i wish you luck in quiting the habit. try and replace the habit with another healthier one, like sex or something.

You're right bro, but this is all very easy for non-smokers to say. What if I told you you couldn't have a pizza ever again in your life? It's a similar thing. I don't know, I havn't smoked in a few days, trying to quit for the thousandth time, so i'm a little pissy. I've smoked for 8 years and I don't think I'll ever stop missing it. How many do you smoke a day? Good luck!

What do you mean by acetate.

I smoke 20-25 a day, I hate it, but I tried to quit a few times, tried the patch, gum, etc. Nothing has seemed to work.
