Is my heart rate fast or slow at 88?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal range @ rest: 60-99 BPM is a normal heart rate at rest. Aerobically fit people often have lower resting/exercise heart rate, thus better--well conditioned heart pumps better and thus does not have to pump as many times/min. Runners/swimmers/bicyclers/athletes often have nice and slow heart rate. Keep a healthy heart duceduce9..Good luck.
