Hello community,
We all know that a set of hardstyle swings skyrockets the heart rate really fast very high.
I made the following observation: after the set is done I shake my limbs a little bit, try to belly breathe and my heart rate rises almost 5-15 sec. after the completion (very pronounced in later sets) and/or goes a little bit down and up and down again.
Another experience I made in many sessions is this: when I do my “passive” rest I go down in the deep squat position, back straight and erect, my elbows pressed on the inside of the knees, my palms pressed together like in a prayer gesture. This is a really stable posture (braced in myself) but I still can belly breathe (my thighs are outside my torso).
Now the following happens: after a short time (in later sets it takes a little longer) my heart rate skyfalls, 5-20bpm suddenly, and I can get to 90-100bpm in maybe a minute. When I stand up it will rise 10-20bpm and stabilizes. I ponder this effect has something to do that the heart does not need to work all the way up when Iam in the deep squat position. But the drop rate it produces really amazes me...
