Walking Heart Rate
This morning, I received a health alert from my iPhone.
It informed me that my average heart rate had been lower over the last 20 days.
I wondered why it mattered.
Doesn’t a lower walking heart rate simply mean I am walking slower than usual?
Here’s what Apple explains regarding this notification:
Your walking heart rate is the average heart beats per minute measured by
your Apple Watch during walks at a steady pace throughout the day.
Like resting heart rate, a lower walking heart rate may indicate better heart
health and cardiovascular fitness. Walking regularly has many health benefits, and you may see your walking heart rate lower over time by staying active, managing your weight and reducing everyday stress.
Sounds good to me.
Could it be that my rebounding exercise regime is starting to pay off?
I hope so!
