I think my heart rate is messed up should I train differently?

Hey I have a resting heart rate currently at 40bpm and 38bpm sleeping but when I start running or anything like that it goes up to 198bpm and I’m 31 so my max heart rate should only be 189 but I feel like I could go harder but I don’t because I’ll probably throw up at like 202bpm

So my problem is my zone 2 is almost non existent

I’m at like 75bpm speed walking but I can’t get in zone 2 it goes to maybe 100bpm to like 170 instantly once I start running what am I doing wrong???? Because I can’t get in zone 2 by speed walking so there’s no medium between speed walking and jogging

Help

I love running but I think it’s making my butt saggy?

Hey I’m noticing the more I run the less elasticity my skin has I don’t know if I’m just aging at the same time I’m getting into running? (I’m 31)

I have lost weight before I was 175 all through high school and then gained 30lbs after a bad break up in college went up to 205 but then quickly lost the weight and stayed about 165 for about 2 years from road cycling before I had to move back into my parents house

During the time I lost all of my muscle tone from depression due to living with my mom
And without the muscle brought me down to 158(but obviously not happy weight loss)

Even though all that though I never had lose saggy skin didn’t even have cellulite

I eventually moved out and got back to the gym and started adding running to my routine
I’m currently at 185 and the strongest I’ve ever been with the best cardio vascular health I’ve ever been at in my life

but I’ve noticed something my skin feels loose, it looks lumpier even though I’m technically heavier than I was at my lowest weight even when I was 205 my skin wasn’t this lumpy and uneven

Something is different this time I figured it’s because I’m aging or I’m running and I don’t know which

Thoughts?

I have this problem at every job I’ve ever worked at

I just get harassed by the janitor, by the guys who work in the back, the guy who opens and shuts the door my job is to sit at a desk and answer phone calls these guys wait until the manager is gone to try and get me to do their job and try and tell me I don’t do any work…. It happens at every job from Starbucks barista to sales associate they bully me until I leave they make physical threats. Management doesn’t do this why do they do this?

Are we all trapped in a porn genre for the rest of our lives?

Why are we out here “identifying” as “pillow princesses” “doms” and “bottoms”??? My neighbor was my baby sitter growing up in the 90s and I watched her having normal teenage relationships and I always thought when I grow up I get to have that too and now I’m an adult and every where I look instead of getting asked “what kind of stuff do you do for fun?” I’m getting asked “ what do you like what are you into what gets you off?” I missed an important milestone does anyone else see a problem here?

How much weight to stress on personal relationships in the workplace?

Hey I work blue collar and some of these guys are people I really would rather not “fit in with” if I find a job I like but my coworkers and I clearly are not a good match should I keep pressing to make this job last or keep looking?

Do you guys think about living an “honorable” life often or do you just live and worry about your accomplishments later?

Do you feel like you need to leave a legacy or do you just accept your imperfections I’ve been reading a lot of books about samurai lately I’m just curious

I have absolutely no idea how other people perceive me

I grew up in a household where my parents were workaholics and also in the middle of a divorce
Almost all my life I’ve received next to no feedback I don’t even know if I smell bad I don’t know if im ugly but only ugly people seem to actually tell me I’m attractive and when they do it’s because they are explaining my argument is invalid because I have “pretty privilege” I’ve never had an attractive person say anything about my appearance, I had one highschool bully who said I was fat back when low rise jeans were a thing and you couldn’t find a pair of pants that came above your buttcrack but I was still fitting into them so I figured he’s just a teenager and those suck, no one even leaves me reviews at my job,… I’m genuinely left with nothing to orient my self perception with I assume I must be either so weird people don’t know what to think so they just don’t talk to me or I appear to not need anyone…. What the hell is this and how do I find out why life feels so bleh

My family didn’t realize I was disabled until I was an adult.

My family didn’t abandon me until I was an adult.

My family had the same expectations for me as they did for everyone else but when I hit 30 my mother decided I was a dud. There is no support system in place I’m going to be homeless and the worst part is that I grew up thinking I was equal and that I could achieve anything I wanted.

I ran into an ex of mine at the pride march and they had gained 350lbs should I text them to offer support?

Hi I dated this guy like 4 years ago for a month and broke up with him because he made really bad art but then I ran into him this past weekend and he’s now pushing 500lbs and his ass isn’t even ass-shaped anymore and he’s looking wheelchair bound if you give him 20minutes… first off I knew he had depression when we were together I didn’t imagine things could get that dark, I don’t know if I had anything to do to set off his spiral but I feel obligated to help or at least check in on him…. Is that something you think would help or harm the situation? Like clearly he’s in a crisis but is it my business?
