Read the scenario.Jorge has recently joined a fitness program to improve his cardiovascular health. During one of his workout sessions, he performed a series of high-intensity exercises. At the end of his workout, he measured his heart rate and found it to be 185 beats per minute (bpm). Following the completion of his exercise, Jorge took a minute to sit down quietly. After resting for a minute, he measured his heart rate again and recorded a rate of 135 bpm. What is Jorge's recovery heart rate (ReHR)?
Recovery heart rate is the decrease in heart rate after exercise, measured after the recovery period. Subtract Jorge’s rate after one minute of rest (135 bpm) from his workout heart rate (185 bpm): 185 − 135 = 50 bpm. Therefore, his recovery heart rate is 50 bpm.
