Extract:
For example, Lance Armstrong’s RHR is between 32-34. Mine is around 45-50, which is athletic for my age (42). This is more important than body composition, because your heart determines your workload. You can be a little overweight but if your heart is healthy that’s a step in the right direction.
The first time you do HIIT, be sure to start out with by only doing a couple of sprints so you don’t over exert yourself. And remember that there’s a saying that goes like this: Dead Last Finish is greater than Did Not Finish, which trumps Did Not Start.
