Hey folks,
I have an appointment for a 24hr ECG and Stress ECG at Gatwick in January. I'm really quite worried about the stress ECG, I've heard it follows the Bruce Protocol until your pulse reaches 200bpm
. Now, I go to the gym 3 times a week and have been trying out the Bruce Protocol on the treadmills down there, and the thing is I get to about 11 or 12 minutes and my legs are completely shot with my pulse never getting above 170bpm. Can anyone put my mind at ease at what exactly they are expecting from me? Because there is no way I'm ever getting to 200bpm without my legs collapsing from under me. Cheers.
