My cardiologist recommended Fourth Frontier after we talked about how hard I can push limits while I bike. Iโm 72 and ride about 5k miles/yr. I have a family history of heart disease, my calcium score makes me high risk, and a recent stress test with nuclear imaging indicated a blockage in an artery. I just had a heart cath and no blockage was f…Read More

From all the research I’ve been doing it seems like just don’t sustain a heart rate of that high. So if you set the device to right before that limit, instead of riding through like normal (I tend to overexert myself to just finish) It would make sense to break from normal and do a bit of meditation, lower your heart rate, drink a bit of water.…Read More

I’m the same age, but most of my activity is running. I constrain my training HR – for example when HR = 125 I reduce my pace or walk until it drops to 115, then re-commence. Later in the training cyle constrain at HR 135. This type of training I believe works on the ATP cycle which supports increase in stamina and endurance (below the lactate…Read More

Hi all, I,been using the FF since having an ablation in Aug 2022 for proximal afib/flutter. I got zero info. from the electrocardiologist/process other than to resume my normal life. I,m a serious cyclist (road,gravel,mtb,
cyclocross) and cross country skier. I was left to figure it out myself, hence the FF. I have an exercise phyisiologist who…Read More-
I’ve been waiting to get diagnosed with AFib. I’m 34 can’t do more than 15 mins of activity without it spiking to 165 BPM. Was released from ER, they did qn Echocardiogram but then lost it so Cardiologist had to schedule another one for the 22nd of March, to ensure its not a valve issue. But i was working two construction jobs, got Covid in…Read More

I had ablation for paroxysmal AF in November 2022. My cardiologist recommended 6 weeks of anticoagulant and 3 months of Beta Blocker which Iโm tapering off now. So far no episodes of AF since the ablation but itโs early days. FF certainly very useful in monitoring my exercise as this was one of the triggers.

I would suggest doing what I do. I have an exercise physiologist as a coach and he monitors FF data from every WO session for ecg irregularities. He has been giving me power based WOs. I,m a cyclist also. Good luck
