3.5.5 RESTING HEART RATE - HR
Your resting heart rate tends to decrease as you become more fit. A resting heart rate significantly higher than your baseline
may be an indication of incomplete recovery, overtraining, mental stress, fatique, flu or insufficient adaptation to higher
altitudes.
Tip: Perform the HR Test daily during trekking or mountaneering at high altitudes to follow the change in your resting heart rate from your home
rest
altitude's baseline value and from the values at lower altitudes. If your resting heart rate is significantly higher, you have not acclimatized to the
new altitude. Consider slowing your ascending rate, resting at the current altitude or returning to a lower altitude.
