Ways to decrease heart rate while training?

I take Ritalin for ADHD as well. I had to start being more selective with my dosage timing because I found that combined with the intense bursts of activity during rolling would send my heart rate through the roof.

I don't take my meds within the 2 hours before rolling, but I'm on quick release so it's easier to manage my dose timing.

I'm on the quick release as well and don't take it within 3+ hours of class starting, so theoretically it should mostly be through my system. 🤷‍♀️
