[RC] re: pulse - Teresa Van HoveI'm really just goofing off, but shouldn't the horses pulse be 60+ when walking (anywhere) but would probably drop to normal resting immediately if halted? Havent used my HRM in ages and did not pay a lot of attention at home when I was most into it; but my recollection is that walking almost always put the pulse well up over the resting rate. And I hardly think a pulse jumping to over 50 when buddy leaves is a big deal, thats not like spiking up over 70 from minor excitement. Teresa and Grey and Shade (who will be wearing a HRM some this year as I get to 'know' her better) If you take his buddy away will jump over 50 When I check my HR as we are walking to the out timer during the ride (with me in the saddle) he's almost always 60+. He is at 44 moments before, standing and eating his hay prior to me getting back in the saddle. His pulse goes up some just knowing we are going to go again. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
