Lower resting heart rate

Recommended Posts

I was scrolling thru data on my Fitbit the other day and I noticed that my average resting heart rate prior to doing the Whole 30 was 72-73. After the Whole 30 it is consistently 62-63. I am so curious as to why this is? Perhaps, less sugar? Does anyone have any ideas as to why?

I did Whole30 beginning on July 9th and I am still basically eating that way with just a few splurges here and there. It changed my life so dramatically that I can't see ever eating any other way. I am curious to have some blood work done though and see what my cholesterol and triglyceride numbers are.

A quick google said your heart has to work faster to supply a larger body with blood.  Once you lose weight, you can have a slower resting heart beat.  That is a big change, though.  I would expect that I would have to lose A LOT of weight before seeing that kind of change.
