A member asked:
How many beats per minute is normal for athletes heart rate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Athletic heart: Typically a well-conditioned athlete's heart will run slower than normal because of well-conditioned autonomic reflexes as well as a larger stroke volume with each heart beat. It is NT uncommon to see resting heart rates in 40's-60's in such cases.
