Common Questions and Answers about Exercise equipment and parts

I had a roommate who used one of these in bad weather, and Gym is right, it's much easier to maintain and use than exercise equipment. I like the home exercise equipment, but as i said, it always turns out to need a lot of maintenance even when new.
Are you saying while working at a constant/level exercise aerobic level your HR will drop from 180 to 34? This sounds like equipment failure to me.
I did read that you get these strange readings on different equipment, but are you using the same transmitter? For example, my Polar wrist monitor with a chest strap will also drive the HR on some tread mills and other equipment, so if the chest strap/transmitter is producing errors, those errors will be displayed on all compatible equipment.
The most optimum weight loss that will stay off is if you lose 1-2lbs a week. Anymore than that and will come right back. By July you could lose about 30 pounds if you eat right and maintain a healthy workout plan, but any more than that and you will gain it back very quickly. I've always found by obsessing over the number on the scale does no good. It's about feeling good and being healthy.
Is there any good recommendations on how to workout at home and the sort of things you can do for free even when your unfit ?
The usual precautions should be taken - warming up, checking blood sugars before and after exercise and keeping snacks handy in the event of a low blood sugar. It is possible to have occasional ketones in the urine and to feel fine the next day. If ketones are there for an extended period of time, that could present some more serious concerns. But in that case, you probably wouldn't feel well enough to run or exercise anyway.
A month ago I was in a bad car accident. My car flipped and I hit my head going unconscious. So obviously I had a concussion. I'm healing and have been trying to decide which exercise would be the best? I've belonged to a gym since Oct. but am just concerned to start exercising again. My dr says I need to treat myself as if I have a concussion for at least a year, or while symptoms last. I get headaches, dizziness, sometimes very
mild forgetfulness.
The gadget uses power output to convert to calaries burned, also only down by 10% in the same exercise time. Some exercise equipment uses heart rate to calculate calaries burned ....I think power output is probably more accurate.
It would seem to me that if you extended your training session by an amount of time comparable to the power output reduction (say 10%) you would burn the same amount of fat as before.
I am not experiencing pain or discomfort during this period and am usually able to go for 20-40 minutes. After the end of exercise, my heart rate gets much more regular but the rate jumps up to the 130-150 range before returning to normal after several minutes.
So my question is - am I working too hard? Am I doing damage? Are my meds affecting heart rate?
ll have an exercise program, and most physical therapy equipment can be purchased for not a lot of money over the internet. Over time, you will get stronger in a way that suits you, and hopefully break out of your rut. But for any of us to tell you specific exercises to do is difficult, as we don't know what's really going on nor how strong you are nor how you'll react to a specific exercise.
a) I appear to be quite fatigued by the sotalol; does this get better over time?
b) When exercising, my heart rate isn't climbing to my normal range (140-160 bpm) and my performance is suffering for it. Is there a trick to handling this other than simply slowing down, and is there less or no benefit to 'cardio' workouts when you can't get your heart rate to the preferred zone?
