heart rate question
 

Just wondering. I'm currently working out 5xweek I use a heart rate monitor to stay in my target heart rate zone. But i'm on a heart medication
( cardiazem cd) that keeps my heart rate lower- so getting to the 70-80% is darn near impossible. Am I losing the same calories with a lower heart rate?? I'm sure the benefits are just the same.

That's a question for your doctor. Also ask if the general "target rates" are safe for you.

Thanks. The doctors do not seem to know the answer to this either.
