HowBStrong Heart Seminar

I went to the HowBStrong heart seminar today over at the Cape Codder in Hyannis.  I had lots to do and almost didn't go.  I knew the organizer(s) as well as most of the speakers...and to be honest...I wasn't expecting all that much...because well...how much are your friends going to know? Yuck...yuck...yuck...just kidding.

As it turned out...this thing was brilliant.  They managed to pack all kinds of useful information from various individuals into 3 hours.   I thought the talk was going to be more general.  Instead it was chock full of useful tools...things you could integrate into your life almost immediately. 

Each person attending the seminar was tested for cardiovascular health and given a personal report with the findings...a $45 value.  The test was called "autonomic balance & accelerated photoplethysmograph."  Say that five times fast.  It sounds fancy...and I supposed it is...but it only took a couple of minutes and the report itself had all sorts of useful information.  Not only did it assess cardiovascular risk...it detailed both physical and mental stress levels as well as the balance between the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous systems.

My report showed excellent cardiovascular health but very high mental stress levels and a seriously overactive sympathetic (flight or fight response) nervous system.  It's all dead accurate.

If they do another one...and you're in the area...I'd recommend going.

Maybe you should add meditation to your fitness routine. Now I know why you run so fast!
