Famine Confusion
Posted: Sun Nov 27, 2011 10:48 pm
Hello to all. I'm a newbie to the BP and am currently in the midst of my first famine state. I'm wrapping up my third day this evening.
I took the recommended week off before starting the BP, just to read up on everything and to rest my body. My baseline waking HR during this time was 62. My second day of the famine phase by body began to respond and my waking HR was beginning to elevate, and it was 65. However, when I woke up this morning my HR was 54. I thought maybe this could be a mistake, so I lounged around in bed a few more minutes, but it was again 54.
Is this normal? My diet and training have been spot on as to BP guidelines during my first 3 days of famine.
Any help appreciated.
