Could You explain why You train like that? I don't see why you would train Dynamic with a starting heartrate of a 120, as one usually relaxes before Dynamic as well as static.
Also I'm not sure if I understand your breathing routine - are those numbers seconds? And if so, are they the time you take to inhale/exhale or breaks between in- and exhaling?

That your heartrate dropped is a good thing, but You should start at that reate.
