Resting Heartrate

Okay, okay, I'm tired of arguing weight with Aquageek and company...and Centaur brought up a very neat idea. So answer me this, if you're so inclined to: What's your resting heartrate? There are a few who say theirs is below 55, and some who say it's right around 60. To try and get a slightly less askew measurement, try taking it while you're sitting right here, reading this. Hopefully, you're on the computer during the day, either at work (shame on you for being on the boards at work!) or at home (I won't question that), or somewhere, and you sit down for a few minutes at least. Take your heartrate, and answer the poll, and we'll see what we come up with. I'd start by telling you mine, but I had an asthma attack this morning, and as a result, my resting heart rate is higher, around 68 bpm's. Typically, it's 54. Stupid asthma. Makes me feel like I've been hit by a truck. :(

  • Remember that your resting heart rate will be affected by that cup of coffee or tea you had this morning, also asthma medication will make it race for a long time after you use your inhaler - my daughter uses one. Mine was 52 this morning, sitting at the desk mid-morning. Not bad.
