mtbc: maze J (red-white)
[personal profile] mtbc
In my usual check for COVID-19 symptoms my temperature this morning was a normal-for-me 97.1°F and my pulseox check showed no lower than 98% saturation. The monitor still sometimes beeps though because my heart rate has steadily declined as my fitness increased and weight decreased: when I was unfit and obese, even at rest it was around 90bpm, now it's typically in the 60s. Even though I had a coffee this morning it got down to 45bpm during my measurement, when my saturation was at 99%, and the machine beeps below 50bpm. I am quite relaxed at the moment, resting on the sofa drinking tisanes before my morning workout. As previously noted, caffeine has no perceptible stimulant effect on me; that was the same for my father and his brother and also seems true for my son. During a typical workout my heart rate reaches 150bpm or so which is right around my target so at least it remains able to increase as necessary.
