Needs evaluation.: To help decide if it's safe to exercise, it would be important to undergo a thorough examination to determine the underlying cause of the tachycardia. Hyperthyroidism causes a rapid heart rate; there are less common medical problems which could be at fault. Finding the problem will enable the determination of the proper treatment. Then the exercise question can be answered.
