How high is too high for a heart rate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal heart rate.: At rest, assuming your heart rate is in normal sinus variety, your heart rate should be somewhere between 60 to 100 bpm, unless you are athletic in which case it could be a bit below 60. With exertion, the maximum heart rate would be 220 minus your age. Anything above that would be considered too high.
