Your resting heart rate (RHR) is the number of times your heart beats per minute while at complete rest. Resting heart rate will decrease as your heart becomes stronger with aerobic exercise training. A low resting heart rate is an indicator of good fitness. Here are some facts: The units are bpm (beats per minute). Fit adults may have a resting heart rate below 60 and some elite endurance athletes have resting heart rates below 40. A healthy resting heart rate for adults is 60-80 bpm. An average adult resting heart rate range is 60-100 bpm but recent large studies and meta-analyses show health risks are increased at a higher range. Resting heart rate may be affected by medications. Beta blockers may lower resting heart rate below 60.
Having bradycardia (say bray-dee-KAR-dee-uh) means that your heart beats very slowly. For most people, a heart rate of 60 to 100 beats a minute while at rest is considered normal. If your heart beats less than 60 times a minute, it is slower than normal. A slow heart rate can be normal and healthy.
