I'm really worried about some symptoms I've been experiencing. Whenever I get tired, I start having short breaths and feel this chest pain. I can walk for a bit if I go slowly, but after a few minutes, I start running out of breath and the chest pain comes back. Does this sound like something serious? What should I do about it?

View allI walked 2 kilometers in 30 minutes, and my average heart rate was 130 bpm; is that a good level, or is it on the high side? At times, my heart rate even reached 160 bpm. Should I be concerned about this?
Walking for 2 kilometers in 30 minutes is a good exercise. An average heart rate of 130bpm during this activity is within the moderate intensity range for most adults. However, reaching a maximum heart rate of 160bpm indicates that you were pushing yourself towards the higher end of your cardiovascular capacity. It is important to listen to your body and not exceed your maximum heart rate too frequently to avoid overexertion. If you are healthy and have no underlying heart conditions, you can continue with this level of exercise. Remember to stay hydrated and consider incorporating some cool down exercises after your walk to help your heart rate return to normal.
