I've been looking at some HR analysis and I'm looking for answers.
The data below is from Blayney2Bathurst 110km in 3h11m - so I was pushing it all the way.
The course undulates a little with a reasonable hill at the 85km mark.

I was thinking that maybe I could extract some target zone HR data from over 3h of 3sec samples. If the average power for a flat out time trial for 1h gives a reasonable approximation to power at LT, then the highest result of a 1h average should be my average HR at LT... 88% of HR(max) ok so far.
Then I was thinking I could also calculate a few more time windows to look at say my average for 15min, 30min, 90min... and there were a couple of time intervals that went backwards in HR :crazy:
I'm guessing mr Nyquist is playing tricks with some underlying frequency - but what would be causing this?
Is this kind of data normal?
