resting 51
max last year 180 on a hillclimb race
age 40!
found latterly(since a bike training camp)im riding about 10 beats lower than when i was last year-i think im tired-told me coach who told me to throw my monitor away.
aint so sure if this is suchy good advice!!????
when i had my wisdom teeth pulled out i was resting 61 for a week-pshows that all sorts of impacts have an affect on it.
As you get fitter, your heart rate will work a lower rate at what you perceive to be a similar level...Quote:

... if you took 30 minutes to ride ten kms a year ago and your heart rate was 135bpm, then, after continued riding over the year you rode the same ten kms in the same weather conditions, you might find you can maintain 135bpm but finish those 10 kms in 20 or 25 minutes.
So your fitness level rises and your heart is more efficient.
Congrats, SunShine - this is what has happened for your heart.
Mebbe you should throw your coach away :p
