High heart rate with normal power
Feelings and metrics
If heart rate is higher than normal for the same power, there may be heat, fatigue, dehydration, stress, or lack of rest.
Recommended steps
- Compare with similar sessions, not with one isolated day.
- Review sleep, heat, hydration, and caffeine.
- Lower intensity if sensations are bad.
- Do not force a hard session if the body does not respond.
- Observe the trend over several days.
- If there are unusual symptoms or discomfort, prioritize health.
