Are you spamming the spirit of this forum?
You have no idea (if you could see my face and the painted picture it represents) of the fierce roar within my bowels to pull your heart out and piss on it. I would then (hypothetically) put it back in, and you would be wiser, self-educated, and smell much better than before.
If you are not, my apologies. And, may you go on promoting the spirit of members to enable each to be near it.
Best wishes

common sense to me.
So I don't actually monitor my heart rate. I have a monitor on my treadmill. according to this thing my heart rate should be in the 150's.
should I start monitoring it? Its usually pounding in my head and neck when I'm training but I never got that technical about it.
Prolly a dumb question but oh well.

This is my short but not exhaustive viewpoint.
While one "can" possibly refine fat loss by adhering to the logistics of heart monitoring and potentially enter the so-called fat losing zone when coupled with a proper constructed diet (and understanding the personal particulars involved), the diet (and the person) will subject the fat loss zone to much respect or disrespect.
With this in mind, and dependent on the goals, I believe it more important to "progress aerobically" (and there are many ways to guage this other than heart monitoring), learn the approximent calories expended dependent on the time, intensity (MPH, and other considerations), and duration, and fat loss (when diet is appropriate for the person) will fall into place on its own.

exercising at 80-85% HR seems a little extravagant for a lot people to begin with, and to do a full work-out within that zone is going to give someone a heart attack. And you burn muscle when going above the zone? I've never heard of this before. Anyone know of any studies done on this topic?

yeah it seemed a bit absurd to me to maintain that heart rate for any duration. Mine def. fluctuates as I train. i.e. if I'm doing heavy squats or BP's it jumps up then when I do lat pulls it drops.
I've read that a healthy heart adjusts quickly. Being the longer it takes to normalize its rate the less healthy it is.
I little trick that works for me is using a Polar Chest Strap w/ watch to monitor my HR, but I made a PRE chart (1-10) for me. This allows me to compare the two to see exactly how my heart is progressing through exercise. Normally, you should see your HR increase at a given PRE rating.
