Why does your pulse rate decrease after you exercise?

Posted on January 1, 2012 by admin

One of the questions on my homework is why did your pulse rate decrease after you rested from exercising? Any help? There’s also a question that says what does your pulse rate tell you about what your heart is doing?
Thank you PetRatLover!!! But can you please answer my second question???

During exercise, you need more oxygen throughout the body. Your heart pumps faster and carriers the O2 in the blood. When finished, your heart slows down to accommodate the decreased need for oxygen distribution.

Why and How does running speed affect pulse rate?

Posted on December 27, 2011 by admin

please could you be more specific with the why rather than the how, and quite an in depth answer for why running speed affects pulse rate, thanks! will give lots of points!

Your joints and body parts are moving faster than usual. So the heart has to pump more oxygen than usual through your blood. That is why we often breathe faster while running after running than when we are walking. The heart pumps blood and oxygen through our bodies by pulsing. The more it needs to pump, the faster it pulses. That is also why when you are out of breath, your heart is pulsing faster.

How do I change my landline phone from pulse dialling mode to tone dialling?

Posted on December 20, 2011 by admin

I need to change the dialling tone on my landline from pulse to tone dialing.

Usual there is a small slide switch on the bottom or occasionally on the back of the phone. It will be marked Tone/T and Pulse/P; simply slide it to the Tone/T position.

Was my blood pressure and pulse good?

Posted on December 6, 2011 by admin

At school we had a doctor’s test and my blood pressure was 128/79 and my pulse was 117

Is that good? My pulse was a little highe cause I was nevous.

Once when I was watching The Dr Oz Show, he said blood pressure should be about 115/75. Your systolic pressure (128) is a bit high, but I wouldn’t worry too much. As you said with your pulse, it’s high as well, and it’s good that you recognize that.

Your systolic pressure being high could also be from nerves, just like your pulse. Try your pulse again later when you’ve been resting and are not stressed out. If it is less than 100, that’s a good thing.

If you’re worried about your blood pressure, bring that up next time you visit your personal Dr and see what he/she says. They’ll either tell you it’s not that big a deal like I’m thinking, or will ask you to take a blood pressure monitor home and keep an eye on it (or could have you report in every so often to have it taken there.)

I’m sure you’ll be fine, especially if your pulse comes down during a relaxed, stress-free period. Good luck.

what is your pulse like if blood flows back into ventricle during dystole?

Posted on November 25, 2011 by admin

A damaged aortic valve does not seal properly and allows blood to flow back into the ventricle during dystole….what do you expect to happen to the pulse pressure?

Hi Jess,

Blood pressure and pulse pressure falls when there is aortic valve insufficiency. This occurs because blood flows back into the ventricle when the ventricle completes the systolic phase. Please visit the site I have attached for more details.

I do not have a blood pressure measuring instrument. Is there any connection between pulse rate and pressure?

Posted on November 19, 2011 by admin

I do not have a blood pressure measuring instrument. Is there any connection between pulse rate and pressure. My normal pulse rate varies from 60 – 80 at the start and do not go beyond 100 in peak. I have been doing this exercise on obitrac machine. Burns between 250- 300 calories per day and exercise for about 30 – 40 minutes. Is my pressure is within the limit??

It is impossible to predict blood pressure based solely on the heart rate. Home blood pressure machines can be purchased at most pharmacies and are usually less than 50 dollars.

What should be the pulse rate of a 30 year old man?

Posted on November 10, 2011 by admin

My age is 30. I go to gym 6 days a week. My pulse rate is 72+ . Is it ok for me?

Keep in mind that many factors can influence heart rate, including:

Activity level
Fitness level
Air temperature
Body position (standing up or lying down, for example)
Emotions
Body size
Medication use.
The average resting heart beat on a healthy male is 68/72
Although there’s a wide range of normal, an unusually high or low heart rate may indicate an underlying problem. Consult your doctor if your resting heart rate is consistently above 100 beats a minute (tachycardia) or below 60 beats a minute (bradycardia) — especially if you have other signs or symptoms, such as fainting, dizziness or shortness of breath
