would love to see numbers like that for Starc when he bowls 20+ overs in a full day in the field.


According to this site: http://content.bemagazine.com.au/bemaga ... alculator/
That makes you 180kgs, which we know you're not.

I suspect your watch is giving you higher figures than the truth.


Or, and with the greatest respect BM but using your description of your kinanthropometry, your lack fitness means you have to work harder for a given intencity than say MW who does a lot of running (based on his posts over the years. Higher the HR for a given workload the more unfit you are.

Starc would probably have the same average HR as you for the same time period (~75% MHR - Z1) Interspersed with ave HRs of 170-180 BPM for an over. Much higher workload required though!

I suspect the watch is accurate.

I would expect elite top level marathon runners at the front to sit at 88-92% MHR (zone 3/transport work) zone where they are just on the verge of their Lactate threshold (LT) so for for a 30 yo runner (170-180 BPM) for the race. Their average HR would be interspersed by surges up to 190 whilst they attempt to burn break their competitors by putting them into their "hurt zone" (above LT) , then recovering again at the 170 BPM before trying to break.

Recreation marathon plodders (good luck and on them I say) may sit at the 145 (75% MHR) for a 3-4 hrs.

I jizz in my pants when you write this stuff

That would cause your heart rate (HR) to spike from somewhere near 60-70% MHR ( The read post zone ) to closer to 85-95% MHR ( The nad explode zone ). Typically after such an event you'll drop back to somewhere near 40-50% MHR ( The off to sleep zone ).

Back when i was playing cricket i wore my Garmin GPS watch for a few matches.

On one example -
Opening bowler (slow-medium), bowled 10 overs - innings went for 37 overs - 2hrs and 31 minutes
I was the skipper so fielded in the slips.

i completed 8.31km.
1hr and 31 minutes of moving time. (10:56min/km ave)

I did once wear it for an 80 over game and did somewhere in the vicinity of 18km but cant find the data file - bowled around 20 overs.

Edit - I dont have a heart - hence no heart rate recorded.

Yeah I don't doubt Benny covered 12kms in the day, its more that that converts to 10,000 kj that I think the watch might be overestimating.

I was more providing the data about the amount a bowler might do in a full day. At a guess id say theyd do in excess of 20km.

FWIW in that period my watch said id burned 500 calories. Was prob low 80kg.

Then you would've used less energy given the elongation and flexibility of their spine and length of levers for a relatively small muscle mass of their limbs.

Gazelles, Dear, impala etc are very biomechanically efficient i.e. use less energy for a given speed, movers across the ground....
