My RHR was 58 then, and it's 53 now. And I've upped the speed at which I jog and it's impossible to get my HR up to 140, which it would almost always hit during the last interval. Sometimes it only gets to 126-130! Just from those numbers I know my heart is pumping more efficiently, and oxygen utilization by the muscles has improved. So a) I still hate it b) I love what it's doing for me and c) I'm now hooked! :)


JOJO1947, such an exciting update! Thank you so much for coming by and sharing your ongoing success. What a great way to move through spring and into summer!
