I just read an article at http://www.aht.org.uk/fsheets/fsheets9.html regarding
heart rates for horses. It states that at low heart rates of 140, it is
considered aerobic and the horse should be able to exercise at that rate and
recover quickly. That seems a bit high to me. What is a good aerobic zone for
the typical Arabian horse? The article showed heart rates for conditioned
Thoroughbreds on a treadmill. Pretty interesting. I've just started using a
heart rate monitor and was very surprised at how quickly the heart rate
increases & decreases.
BTW, I've lost my GPS unit (:>(, maybe at Empire
Mine gate or staging area....has anyone found one there? It's sorely
missed.
