Yes: I think it's fine especially likely if you are fit and run or other form of cardio. You may want to incorporate some weights into your regimen too

Likely yes!: I am assuming you feel well. A lower heart rate, with no symptoms, in an athletic individual is generally a good finding. It is a sign your heart is healthy and able to easily provide your body with enough blood, so it can beat relatively slowly. Of course, please see your doctor if you have any concerning symptoms.
