12 Min AMRAMP:
10 push up
5 cal airdyne

Thanks.....still bugged by how much the run messed me up.

That is what sucks about it - if you don't train the run consistently, you suck at it.

Oh well.

Yup, I can imagine how it would screw you over if not performed consistantly, then getting a 4.5 mile run in on occasion.....that`s gonna` take some recovery time for sure.

Take an extra day off if needed....it may do you good if you feel you need to.

Look into "Carditone" if you havent already... (If you are looking for a supp that can help)...

Ahh, I see... OK.
Im sure Doc can adjust whatever meds you're on then.
I wasn't sure if you were just running into this and looking to try something before jumping on a beta-blocker..

go and give blood before you go

robcguns · « **Reply #2247 on:** March 13, 2023, 04:27:10 PM »

Cook it may sound stupid but eat a few cucumbers a day. I eat maybe 6 mini cukes a day and it helps for sure. Everytime I eat cukes my bp drops after a few days.
