cancerous tumor in thalamus. My cousin Dave, we recently found out, has a large cancerous tumor in his left thalamus. He was able to undergo a biopsy, but they are saying it is inoperable. Right now, I do not know what type of tumor it is (the results of the biopsy) but we are waiting.
When you exercise in your fat burning zone, you use a greater percentage of calories from fat than at other heart rate zones. You reach your typical fat burning zone when your heart rate is at 55 percent to 70 percent of your maximum heart rate.
For most adults, normal heart rate is 60 to 80 BPM. Well-trained athletes can have a normal heart rate of 40 to 60 BPM. When you work out, your heart rate will get higher. This is called your active heart rate. Active heart rates, like resting heart rates, differ in people and change as you age. Generally, a healthy active heart rate is 60 to 80 percent of your maximum heart rate, or the highest your heart rate should safely go.
