Heart Rate After Climbing Stairs

Your father's symptoms are possible indication of "stable angina" stable angina is a heart disease which occurs only when body is stressed like walking or climbing stairs or other exercises. Ecg is typically normal in stable angina, it shows abnormality only during the periods of pain. I suggest you to go to a proper cardiologist, and do a treadmill test or stress echocardiography. Please keep tablet isosorbide mononitrate with yourself, whenever pain occurs, this tablet should be given. Do not swallow the tablet, it should be kept under the tongue. Please visit a cardiologist at the earliest.

Hello lybrate-user, I am sorry to hear about your problem. Firstly, I would like to emphasize that you need to try and quit smoking. Smoking itself is a risk factor for hypertension. Your overall blood pressure is on the higher side. Your medications need to be increased and adjusted. If your ecg is normal then you probably don't have a heart attack. Please don't take sorbitrate as a routine medication if you don't have chest pain. Sorbitrate is not a medication for anxiety. Let us connect and try and formulate a holistic treatment plan for you. Thanks and regards.

Sinus tachycardia means increased heart rate. I would like to convey here first heart rate is not a static one. It will be varying depending upon various factors like age, physical activity, hydration status, emotional status, personality type, familial and so on. The first thing you have to check is during the time of taking ecg were you undergoing any physical activity for example did you do ecg after climbing up stairs or may be you might have been anxious in front of a lady nurse with bare body or afraid of hospital atmosphere and so on. You can repeat ecg in a completely relaxed state in a relaxed environment and check. If still higher heart rate then you can go for routine blood test since lesser hemoglobin could cause tachycardia and infections can cause it. And later if needed you might have to do thyroid function tests. But before all these better do a consultation because after taking detailed history I can provide you a best solution. Feel free to have a private chat with me and get clarified. I am ready to help you out.

You need to have diet plan based on your bmi & activities. Whatever we eat is metabolised by the body for the energy needed to do daily work and the excess is stored as fat. Abdomen is the first place to gain weight and last to disappear. In brief, weight reduction can be achieved only by reducing the intake of food 1/3 of what you take now. And by appropriate exercise plans for each part like belly, thighs, legs / chest etc. To burn off fat. Some tips 1) drink three or four cups of water whenever you feel hungry and just before eating food 2) take boiled or raw vegetable like cucumber, carrot etc. As half of your diet. Then take 1/2 of your total diet as sprouted pulses / proteinaceous food like roti, cooked pulses and remaining with rice or other carbohydrates. Oil or ghee etc. Should be just bare minimum. And do aerobic exercises, running, jogging or at least walking briskly 3-5 kms and swimming if possible, and in a gym if feasible. The most important is to burn off the energy intake by exercises. There is no short cut or medicines without exercise & dieting to take just as mush food as needed for your activities. The food we eat is utilised for our energy needs and the remaining will be stored as fat which leads to obesity. It is better to do some tests.

Losing fat in the legs will improve your appearance and your health. Carrying too much fat slows you down and increases your risk of heart disease and diabetes. A weight-loss goal of 1 to 2 pounds a week is reasonable, which means in 30 days you can lose 4 to 8 pounds. Losing leg fat in 30 days requires a plan of healthy eating, cardiovascular workouts and leg toning exercises. Step 1 eat a healthy, low-calorie diet. Eating more calories than your body need leads to fat gain. Cut your calories by eliminating sugary and fatty foods from your diet. Measure your portion sizes to avoid overeating. The 2010 dietary guidelines for americans suggest eating fresh, healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins such as poultry. Step 2 perform 30 to 60 minutes of cardiovascular exercise five days a week during the course of 30 days. Cardiovascular exercise burns fat speeding up the weight loss process over dieting alone. Consider doing exercises that also target the legs such as rollerblading, running, hiking and bicycling. Step 3 do squats two to three days a week over the month. The american council on exercise reports that squats along with lunges are the best exercises for thighs. Start by standing with your legs a little wider than hip-width. Bend your knees, shifting your weight back as if you're going to sit down. Don't allow your knees to extend over the toes. Straighten your legs to return to the start position. Add resistance by holding dumbbells or a barbell. Step 4 perform lunges two to three days a week for 30 days. Stand with your legs hip-width apart. Step forward with your right leg, bending the knee as shift your weight forward. Keep your right knee over the ankle. Push back with the right foot to return to the start position. If you have bad knees, step backward instead of forward into the lunge. Add resistance by holding a dumbbell in each hand. Perform the lunge to the side to target the adductors and abductors -- inner and outer thighs. Step 5 take the stairs instead of the elevator or escalator during the next 30 days. Using the stairs burns fat and tones the legs. It can also cut your risk of premature death by 15 percent. Tips •continue eating healthy and exercising beyond the 30 days to maintain your weight loss and health. How to reduce fat in the buttocks a sculpted, firm backside is the goal of many who seek to improve their appearance. Strong, lean buttocks are also a sign of health. Carrying too much fat increases your risk of heart disease and diabetes. Reducing fat in the buttocks requires lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet and exercise.

Running, hiking and stair climbing burn calories, as well as firm up the buttocks. But you can perform any exercise that you enjoy and gets your heart rate up to burn fat in the backside. Step 3 perform butt lifts. Butt lifts are ideal for beginners or people who have bad knees and can't do squats or lunges. Lay on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Squeeze your glutes to lift your buttocks off the floor. Release to return to the start position. Perform two sets of 12 to 15 repetitions. To increase resistance, hold a dumbbell, barbell or body bar over your hips. Step 4 perform reverse extensions on a stability ball. Like butt lifts, reverse extensions target the butt muscles without putting stress on the knees. Lay face down on the ball with your hands and feet on the floor. Shift your weight so that it's supported by your hands. Squeeze your glutes to lift your legs until they are parallel to the floor. Hold your legs together through the range of motion. Lower to the start position repeating two sets of 12 to 15 reps. Step 5 do squats.

Instead of using the elevator or escalator -- always use the stairs to burn fat and tighten the glutes. Things you'll need •dumbbells, barbell or body bar •resistance band •stability ball.
