Cardiac Workload, or more precisely myocardial workload, is a measure of the stress put on the heart muscle. Cardiac Workload can be calculated using the formula: Heart Rate (bpm) x Systolic Blood Pressure (mmHg). When measured at rest, this index can be used as an indicator of cardiovascular health. For example, a person who exercises regularly may have lower cardiac workload than another person who has a sedentary lifestyle. During intense physical exercise, your cardiac workload may increase, but should decrease post-exercise.
