I don't know..

Untrained heart-rates are genetic, girls have a higher RHR on average, caffeine intake plays a part, theres a whole load of stuff to think about.

I believe the best time to get an accurate indication of your resting heart rate is immediately after you wake up, as that is when you are in your most relaxed state.

During sleep is the best time apparantly, but is a bit difficult to do as you can imagine, as it means falling asleep with your heart-rate monitor on, not a cool thing to do is it? :biggrin:

I have a high heart rate and surges of reaaaally fast and irregular beats. They stuck a 24 hour ecg on me and at one point it peaked at 160 bpm and that was while I was asleep :eek:

Doctor said it was me getting all stressed and panicky about things and gave me a course of Atenolol to slow it down. If you have got an unusally high heart rate it is worth getting it checked out especially if you have other symptoms with it such as dizziness, irregular/fluttery heart beats, shakiness and chest pain.

60-80 is generally considered the 'normal range' for a resting heartbeat. Fit people may have resting heart rates in the low 40's.
