Garmin Forerunner 225 wrist heartbeat monitor- $380+

I know for a long time i have a slow heartbeat and recently someone told me that i actually have very constant body temperature. The thing about slow heartbeat, in a way give you certain advantages depending on what you do. For one, someone who pound fast and heavy should not aspire to be a professional poker player. Faster heartbeat also affect your decision making process and how you assess situation. Mohammed Ali have an extremely slow heartbeat and the guy in his prime never ever crack under pressure. i have seen countless videos of his fight and he is indeed a true master. Although in today MMA fast and furious world, technique reign supreme because you got nowhere to hide and rules of not using legs doesn't protect you anymore.

For me, i never have the problem of cracking under pressure but as you ages, this ability will slowly fade i am sure but i am more interested in pushing my cardio limit on power lifting and see how much weight wi push my heartbeat to the red zone. this would enable a mathematical estimation of power lifting potential and with the right tweaking of chemical you can know your peak performance. the rest is just choice.

Being able to plot you blood O2 levels, heartbeat and the rhythm and velocity of it is all part of understanding your limit. SAS elite program gather such data and is able estimate which trainee will crack first under pressure and the belief that determination and attitude conquer all is pure bullshit in the face of science. Some people are just genetically superior, which is why we don't see olympic athletes everywhere. Neither do all wannabes end up as an SAS soldier.

Science also determine your ability to make an obscene profit or live a life of mediocrity. One mentor once told me if you do not figure what you are made of then "trying is the first step to failure"

So next time when someone pat you on the back and tell you you can do it, remember science already determine whether you can. the rest is just choice.

well, that was a good rant and remember i am refraining from putting anyone down unlike my previous posts so please don't get offended if you are trying and not making it.
