Thanks for the replies! My concern about the jogging and running were not because I had any sort of pains. I actually felt pretty good and accomplished after my jog and run. My concern was because I hadn't jogged in years, except when I'm running into a store when it's raining, lol. I'm actually a hypochondriac, so, I've had plenty of blood tests and EKGs and all that jazz within the past few years, so, health wise, I think I'm OK. I just can't help but worry that since I've been so sedentary that if my heart rate goes up too high I'll just collapse. I'm scared of raising my heart rate cuz, I dunno at what point it will be bad. (Thats the hypochondria talking, lol).
I watched the national body challenge the other day and saw something about recovering heart rate, where they exercised and saw how well the heart rate was after a minute? I think thats what it was. Well I did the jogging and my HR went up to 155, after a minute it was at 115. I dunno if thats good, but I'd imagine it lowering like that is a good sign, lol. My heart rate when I play with the thing at Walmart is always 60-70 BPM, and my blood pressure is always around 130/70-ish.
