A normal heart rate for adults lies somewhere between 60 and 100 beats per minute (BPM), and varies based on age group and gender. Women's heart rates are about 2-7 BPM faster than men's on average. Generally speaking, you want to keep your resting heart rate as low as possible. On...
Slow Resting Heart Rates On the other hand, a resting heart rate below 60 beats per minute is called bradycardia, and can cause insufficient blood flow to the brain. "An abnormally low heart rate can lead to symptoms such as feeling tired, lightheaded, dizzy, and may even cause loss of ...
Resting heart rate (RHR) is a clinical parameter easily measurable with typical value between 50聽and聽90 beats per minute (bpm) that varies during the day with a night-time decrease.1 RHR can go down to 30 bpm in those with good physical condition, but RHR is also partly genetically ...
We break down what can be considered a normal HRV range for both men and women, with charts displaying averages based on age and gender.Understanding Normal Heart Rate Variability Heart rate variability (HRV), which is regulated by your autonomic nervous system, is very useful for evaluating ...
A normal resting heart rate ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute. However, it is healthier to have a heart rate that is at the lower end of the range. When should I worry about my heart rate? Before you become worried about your heart rate, it is important to know the things that...

A“normal” pulse rate depends on various factors. For example, in addition to the weather, time of day, medication or illnesses, the resting pulse rate is mainly dependent on physical condition and age. Gender also plays a role: women often have a slightly higher heart rate than men.8 ...
Fig. 1: Resting heart rate across bedtimes. The panels show the hourly differences in resting heart rate across an average sleep session stratified by bedtime. a Resting heart rate curves as one goes to bed earlier than normal; b curves as one goes to bed later than normal. Full size ima...
The definition of baseline CVD was previous myocardial infarction, stroke, myocardial revascularization, abnormal electrocardiogram at rest or during the exercise test, or failure to achieve at least 85% of a patient's age-predicted maximal heart rate during the exercise test. Some patients were ...
