    As I'm 56 and my RHR isn't on the chart does that mean I've died?

    High 50s last time I measured which according to this makes me an athlete

    Which is laughable

    Heart rate really doesn't have much of anything to do with those categories. According to this I'm younger than 18yo athlete... which aside from obviously being wrong, the generalization that younger = lower heart rate is also wrong since children typically have higher heart rates than adults...

    I'm a 53 year old man with a resting heart rate of 43. 7:25 mile, which is WAY off of my goal time of 6:00. I can't help but wonder whether there's more to the story than what's in that chart. Otherwise I would be more fit than I actually am.
