What Causes Fluctuations In Heart Rate While Running?
I am slightly overweight now, but I have done sports and worked out my entire life through high school. When I got into college I stopped doing anything for pretty much a year so I put on weight. I now run everyday around 6-10 miles. I don t feel dizzy, pain, light headed or anything, but my heart rate during it jumps and lowers between 170-190 is this safe? If I don t run I cant sleep at all without sleep assist medicine because I have to much energy . PS. I am 19 years old and weight about 195lbs. Any suggestions?
