Resting Pulse Rate

[Purist]

Just wondering what a normal resting pulse rate is, I was a bit concerned as mine is always between 58 and 66. Is that too low?

[jim360]

More or less average. Sorry to be boring.

[Purist]

I am delighted if that is average!

[Sqad]

Looks good to me.

[jim360]

Well it might be towards the lower end of average but it's certainly nothing to get concerned about. If it drops to below 50 I'd start taking a bit more notice, but even then, as long as you aren't feeling tired all the time even when resting, hard to believe that it's anything other than natural variation.

Obviously take this not-a-medical-doctor's medical advice with a pinch of salt, but if Sqad picks up on this I feel fairly confident he'd say the same sort of thing.

Jim.....I would concur.

Always pleasant to have the Sqad seal of approval :)

Mine was only 49 when I had it measured in a health check recently. I thought that was good- I've always been very active and thought it was a sign of that but the health assessor said it is low and perhaps I should get it checked out

I know the LOLs were for jim , not at my possible health concern!

[Sqad]
