How will you be able to know if you don't have any heart problem if you don't make your heart to beat in that kind of fast speed 147?
If I feel too comfortable about my training, I may not push myself hard enough.
This stress test makes me rethink my training program.

Apparently my daily MA training don't push me to that level. I may have to add "fast spring" into my daily training in order to achieve that. This make me think that most Taiji guys may never achieve 147 heart rate in their daily training. Normal resting heart rate ranges from 60 to 100 beats a minute.

May be I need to change my training. Lately I tried to coordinate my body move with my breathing. When I breath slow, I'll move slow. May be I should just move fast and force my breathing to be fast. If I feel too comfortable about my training, I may not push myself hard enough.

When you're doing cardio to burn fat, you want to stay in the range of 65%-70% of your maximum heart rate. If the goal is to increase stamina and aerobic capacity, you aim for 85%. A normal Resting HR can vary as low as 40 BPM to as high as 100 BPM.
70 BPM is usually the average for a man, and 75 BPM is average for a woman. The resting HR should be used as an index to improve your cardiovascular fitness level, with a focus on decreasing it.
The palpation (beats) of the Radial Pulse is accurately measured in your wrist in line with the base of your thumb. Place the tips of your index and middle fingers over the Radial Artery and apply a light pressure to it.
Do not use your thumb. It has a pulse of it's own. You may count the beats for one full minute to get the HR, or for 30 seconds and multiply by 2 for the number of BPM.

John's comment about taichi guys not pushing it enough is right IMO because you eventually want to do a higher amount of work in a given amount of time at the same and then at a lower heart rate than before. That's the training process. But being stuck in slow mode with little variation on training won't provide that stimulus.

Which of the following training can give you better "health" result?
1. Slow vs. fast - Repeat 1000 XingYi Pi Quan within 40 minutes, or repeat 1000 XingYi Pi Quan within 20 minutes.
2. Punch vs. sweep - Repeat 500 XingYi Pi Quan within 10 minutes, or repeat 500 foot sweep within 10 minutes.
3. Sweep vs. throw - Repeat 500 foot sweep within 10 minutes, or repeat 500 hip throw within 10 minutes.
4. ...
I prefer foot sweep over front kick, or side kick because the foot sweep is easy on the joints.
"HRV is a very good measure of the efficiency and performance of your cardiovascular system,” Dr. Higgins adds. A high HRV means your heart is performing like one of those expensive cars that can go 0 to 60 in 2.7 seconds. “Studies suggest that people who have a higher HRV are actually healthier and live longer with less risk of disease,” he says. A lower HRV is associated with heart attacks, strokes, and diabetes.
