Heart rate recovery (HRR), measured as the drop in heart rate one minute after vigorous exercise stops, is a significant marker of cardiovascular and heart health.

“HRR is a marker that indicates how quickly your heart rate drops back to resting heart rate after exercise, indicating cardiovascular fitness and health.”

“1. Exercise intensely for a few minutes 2. Stop, note heart rate 3. Rest for 60 seconds 4. Note heart rate ie. 180 bpm post exercise 150 bpm post 60 seconds = HRR 30 bpm”

“all right now measuring your hrr is easy and you can do it at home you do need a heart rate monitoring device on your body but what you're going to do is you're going to exercise vigorously you'll see where your heart rate is at you'll stop immediately and then rest for 1 minute and you'll measure your heart rate again uh that six 60 seconds after you subtract those two numbers and that's your hrr”

“heart rate recovery this is where you exercise you stop and then 1 minute later you measure your heart rate so for example if your heart rate was 160 and after 1 minute it was 130 that would be a drop of 30 beats per minute this is a significant marker of your cardiovascular and heart health”
