    Resting ranges from 90-108. Never measured during activity but I'd imagine it gets pretty high.

    My resting rate is about 60. I just got a heart rate monitor for Christmas, so I'm not sure about previous numbers but last night I was doing running with stairs and hit 192 (just for a short period though).

    Mine is around 60 but that isn't a true resting measurement either. My dad once got hospitalized when he started feeling weird one day and went to the doctor. His heart rate was 30 and at his age they got concerned. Turned out to be just a side effect of his long distance bike riding :)

    Am I correct to conclude that the more one exercises and keeps weight under control, the lower one's RHR gets for the long haul?

    Yes, the more in shape you are, the lower your RHR will be.

    Okay, I measured my actual RHR and it was 62.
