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.
A slow heart rate is a condition known as bradycardia. A normal heart rate falls in the range of 60 to 100 beats per minute. According to the Mayo Clinic, a person with a slow rate, or bradycardia, has a heart that beats fewer than 60 times per minute. For some people, there are no problems with the slow heart rate.But bradycardia can cause insufficient levels of blood to reach cells that need the oxygen found in blood.eart tissue can be a cause of a slow heart rate. An infection of heart tissue, damage to heart tissue, and deterioration of heart tissue due to aging can all result in a slow heart rate. Inflammatory diseases can cause slow heat rates as well as sleep apnea.
