Thanks for the response. Yah I probably just pushed myself too hard too fast since I hadn’t skated in a while. I’ll go back next week and go a bit less intense, see if that helps. The first few times I tried skating I had no issues but when I took it to the next level of effort it gave some problems. Just need to build up gradually.

Take a FitBit or similar system for tracking your pulse. Record your peak pulse and any symptoms you have afterward. Once you find your 'return of symptoms' pulse rate, moderate your physical effort. Over time, weeks or even months, your 'return of symptoms' pulse should increase as your brain gets used to a higher pulse and blood pressure.
