Higher heart rates may be an indication of poor heart function and higher than usual stress being placed on the hearts ability to circulate blood. This may further indicate heart disease conditions.
Determining these zones can be done through many different methods, including VO2 or lactate testing, formulas and general training regimens. It then becomes necessary to monitor intensity in order to optimize your chances for success. To monitor your intensity there are several methods available to you. First is the perceived exertion method in which you rate your perception of how hard you are exerting yourself during a workout.
The scale on which to base your perceptions range from 1 - See below. As you have noticed, the scale increases non-linearly. Most of your training should be at a rate of perceived exertion of 3.

Click here for information on Cardiovascular Physiology Concepts, 3rd edition, a textbook published by Wolters Kluwer Klabunde The autonomic nervous system ANS can be thought of as an "automatic" neural control system that the body uses to regulate organ function. The ANS is involuntary in that a person cannot normally exert conscious control over its function.
For example, although the ANS plays an important role in regulating heart rate, a person at rest cannot normally increase or decrease heart rate by conscious will in the same way that one can decide to raise an arm or speak. The ANS has two basic divisions - sympathetic and parasympathetic. These divisions have opposite effects and usually work reciprocally.
For example, the sympathetic branch of the ANS, when activated, increases heart rate, whereas activation of the parasympathetic branch reduces heart rate. In contrast, propranolol had a larger effect i. Crude inspection of the results in Figure 3B suggests that both exercise groups possess greater spectral densities, and therefore greater HRV, compared to sedentary mice.
Figure 3. Effects of exercise and cardiac autonomic blockade on HRV. A Representative inter-beat-intervals IBIs as a function of time in a swim exercised, a free-wheel exercised and a sedentary mouse.
The results clearly show increased fluctuations of the R-R intervals in exercise-trained mice compared to sedentary controls.
B Typical examples of spectral power of the HRV generated by Fast Fourier transforming the R-R intervals as a function of frequency for a swim exercised mouse, a free-wheel exercised mouse and a sedentary mouse. Notice the clear increase in the amplitude of the spectral power in the exercised mice compared to the sedentary mouse at virtually all frequencies.
C Integration of the spectral density of the HRV from 0. By contrast, blockade of sympathetic activity with propranolol in the continued presence of atropine as well as in the absence of atropine, see Figure 5 below had minimal impact on HRV for all groups Figures 4A,B.
Figure 4. Effects of cardiac autonomic blockade on HRV. Figure 5. For these findings we chose to present our results in a different format thereby highlighting further that the exercise-induced increases in HRV are not HR-dependent, as suggested previously Gehrmann et al. Again, complete cardiac autonomic blockade eliminated HR differences between groups. Figure 6. The nature of the relationship did not change in the presence or absence of HR correction data not shown.
It has previously been suggested that forced exercise, which is commonly used to model exercise in mice, may introduce aversive i. Despite the possibility that the psychological stress associated with forced training might mask or prevent exercise-induced physiological remodeling Bartolomucci et al. The similar responses seen between the groups are even more surprising given that mice swam twice per day during the light period of the hh light-dark cycle , which required sleep interruption, and that forced swimming involved training intensities during swimming as measured by O 2 consumption rates that were more than 2-fold greater than during free wheel running.
Thus, despite the stress associated with our forced swimming protocols, beneficial physiological remodeling was not impeded. The similar cardiac changes seen with forced and voluntary exercise in mice was associated with similar fecal corticosterone levels between groups, suggesting that the impact of stress associated with forced swimming does not compromise the beneficial effects of exercise.
However, interpretation of corticosterone measurements can be complicated Skoluda et al. Moreover, although fecal corticosterone levels were measured at the beginning of the light cycle — a. It is also possible that the effects of stress associated with forced exercise could unfold if the mice were exercised for longer periods of time.
Our findings that the changes in HR induced by exercise are mediated by ANS remodeling are consistent with previous mouse De Angelis et al. However, a previous mouse study concluded that the bradycardia induced by swim exercise arises exclusively from intrinsic ion channel remodeling in the sinoatrial node D'Souza et al.
The basis for the lack of agreement between our study and that of D'Souza et al. CD1 this study. We believe that swimming against water currents mimics more closely a physiological exercise stimulus and limits human intervention. Clearly more studies are needed to uncover the source of these discrepancies.
The accentuated antagonist mechanism can also readily explain the ability of PNA blockade to cause 1. Our study is also the first to comprehensively dissect the contributions of PNA vs. As in previous studies Ishii et al. Our results show that, unlike humans and larger mammals Pagani et al. Accordingly, mice may show limited blood pressure fluctuations under our experimental conditions thereby limiting the LF HRV Eckberg, Alternatively, it is conceivable that the sympatholytic effects of isoflurane may reduce the SNA-dependent LF power in our mouse studies, as has been reported previously Galletly et al.
However, we found that the HR reductions and HRV elevations were similar in telemetry-implanted and anesthetized mice after 6 weeks of swim training see Table 3. Future studies will clearly be needed to establish the basis for the differences between mice and men in the magnitude of LF HRV and the contributions of SNA.
Table 3. Heart rate and heart rate variability in ECG telemetry-implanted swim trained mice. Such mechanisms would potentially explain the elevated HRV seen in bradycardic exercised mice and are consistent with our observation that PNA blockade both elevated HR and reduced abolished HRV in sedentary and exercised mice, with much larger responses in the exercise groups. However, despite an exponential decay-like dependence of HRV on HR within each group of mice, as shown previously Billman, ; Monfredi et al.
Thus, in contrast to what has been argued in the literature Monfredi et al. Despite the absence of a ceiling effect of HR on HRV in mice, we analyzed our HRV results with and without corrections for HR differences between the groups thereby allowing direct comparisons across studies and species Billman, ; Sacha et al.
For example, exercise causes profound vascular remodeling, which can directly affect the compliance properties of baroreceptors Cameron and Dart, ; Kingwell et al.
But exercise also attenuates the central gain of the baroreflex Tipton et al. Exercise has also been shown to enhance SA node responsiveness to vagal stimulation Danson and Paterson, ; Mizuno et al. Clearly more studies will be needed to fully dissect the contribution of various tonic and reflex factors contributing to the bradycardia and increased HRV induced by exercise.
For example, in all groups we observed tendencies for HRV to increase following propranolol administration in the presence of atropine, which might reflect the indirect impact of HR on HRV. Indeed, when HR correction is applied, the effect of propranolol in the presence of atropine on HRV is slightly blunted. These observations speak to the complex and not simply opposing interactions between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems and their modulation of HR. Previous studies have concluded that isoflurane can inhibit both SNA i.
However, we found no differences in the magnitude of HF power following swim training between anesthetized and conscious telemetry-implanted mice.
Moreover, a distinct advantage of using anesthetized mice to assess HRV is that it provides the ability to control breathing rates, temperature, and movement which all influence HRV, thereby confounding the interpretation of HRV studies. While our pharmacological and isolated atrial studies support the conclusion that PNA plays a dominant role in baseline HRV of sedentary mice as well as both the bradycardia and increased HRV induced by exercise, it would obviously be useful to measure cardiac sympathetic and vagus nerve activity and nodal tissue responsiveness to confirm these conclusions.
In contrast to our exercise measurements, we did not have the ability to simultaneously measure VO 2 and ambulatory activity during resting periods, precluding an estimate of total O 2 consumption over the training period. It is possible that mice that were subjected to forced swim exercise may be less active during the resting period compared to free wheel mice, given the greater intensity of the exercise and the potential impact of sleep interruption on ambulatory activity.
We did not simultaneously measure blood pressure which limits our ability to correct for potential baroreceptor-induced changes in HR responses following ANS blockade.
Our studies establish for the first time that both forced swim and voluntary free-wheel endurance training decreased HR and increased HRV, as seen in the hearts of athletes.
Our findings support the utility of both forced and voluntary exercise to recapitulate the athlete's heart phenotype and suggest HRV can be a useful tool for assessing changes in dynamic HR modulation by the ANS in mouse models of health and disease.
