I am confused by it, but i thought it's possibly due to the fact that i'm very tall (6ft 2inches or 190cm) and that makes my heart rate higher. It's just a thought and i don't know if that applies to you or not.

I measured it and it was 31. What is that all about?

My resting HR is in the low 40's but it ramps up super fast. My max is 197 yet I can ride above 185 for hours. When I am runing my HR is never below 140, even at recovery pace. It is funny when someone I am racing or training with picks up my signal and they freak out. I have the opposite situation. My resting HR is in the low 40′s but it ramps up super fast.
