Resting Heart Rate

Snow3y

Just out of interest how many of you know your resting heart rate? I'd love to hear your numbers...

Previous weeks I was around 60 beats per minute, I am currently at around 52-54 beats per minute, what about you?

36 on a good day.

- just checked - today is a good day.

Snow3y

Wow!! 36 is great! My uncle who runs regularly (on most days) has a resting rate of 42 only!

yogicarl

Yes I fluctuate between 36 and 42. Have you tried willing your heartrate to slow down against a second hand clock/watch? Its an interesting exercise.

61 is perfectly normal!


@yogicarl, I didn't know that was possible :l

Mid 40s to 50s, at rest, last time I checked.

I'm 24 and fairly active, though still a little bit overweight.

Hi 50's to low 60's. I test it regularly just for fun. It used to be consistently 84 when I was heavy.

Usually around 50-54. If it starts creeping up I know I'm getting sick.
