higher heart rate on “easy runs” just shows that person doesn’t have great fitness levels yet. I used to have HR in 180-185 now those same runs are 130-135 range

I always have a high heart rate at a conversational pace! It’s like 170 if I’m easy

It's not a male vs female thing, it's a fitness thing. Your heart rate is very high because you're running faster than your body is adapted for. Nothing wrong with beginner or casual runners running at 7 min/km or slower if they want to keep the HR down.

THANK YOU!! Omg I thought I had a heart condition or something…. I’ll do a 5k, not even fast or at full effort… and my heartrate is SO high. Like 190bpm 🤪 I did a hyrox and it was like 205 bpm hahaha … I hope it’s just a girly thing but I’m glad I’m not the only one…..

This is so interesting!!! My hr is also easily 185+ and even tho I genuinely don’t feel like I am pushing it! Wonder if I just have a generally higher hr?

I went and saw a cardiologist as was consistently getting a HR of 200+ when doing hit but my fitness was good. Turns out the population average doesn’t mean it’s ‘normal’ for all. After multiple tests I was just told my heart is healthy and my heart rate is higher and that’s ok

Literally started running properly 6 months ago, 5k at 6.55 pace was 185-190 HR, I’m now in Darwin in the heat and did a PB at 5:48 pace with a 172 HR. All my training at the start was zone 2 and not letting my HR go over 155, now I can do zone 2 at 142 HR! Slowwww it down,

I think the problem is, the running community is so toxic that people feel embarrassed to run slower. My heart rate probably averages at 144 on most of my runs as I stick mostly at a conversational pace which for me is 7:45-8. My heart rate never typically hits 180, but it will if I all out floor it and run 5-5:30 pace, which for me is far too fast for an everyday run.

iron deficiency contributes to it as well. My hr is highest when i’m deficient

I can be doing a slow 8min/km pace and still be at like 172+ and then I can do sprints and only be at like 185 make it make sense

Higher heart rate when you’re ‘not pushing it’ is just lack of fitness, this will adjust over time once your become fitter

When I spin I struggle to get into zone 5, swim I am barely in a zone but as soon as I even look at my running trainers I’m in zone 5 the whole time

Emmi🏃‍♀️‍➡️⭐️💞 :
Girl!!! 190?? When running normally your heartrate should be so much lower🥹 Slow running is how you train your anaerobic base which also makes your heartrate lower. 5:25 is so fast. And if your heartrate is going up to 190 that is your body saying it is pushing as hard as it can!😭 When I jog normally my heartrate is usually 148-154. When running fast so 5:50 paces and above it’s around 178. This is due to me running most of my runs easy and training my heart. Running is not about going full out everytime and seeing how fast you can go. 5:25 is for me like doing a 5K PB try😅

Social media has completely warped the idea of what running should be. I truly believe that everyone is able to train the body to get their HR lower, but you really have to let go of your ego to start building that foundational base. It might be easier for some than others, but it’s possible. 5/km-6/km for easy pace is not normal.

Zone 2 running appears to be completely impossible for me. If I jog I’m in zone 3, if I’m walking on the flat I’m zone 1 and if I walk uphill I’m zone 3. 🥴 My parkrun PB is just under 26 mins (I’m 45) and my heart rate is pushing 200 during that.
