A member asked:

My resting heart rate was 47 bpm and then i went on a walk that didn't even last 10 minutes and my heart rate was 133 bpm. is in normal for heart rate to raise by 86 beats?

The cited increase is well within the range tolerated by the heart. Duration of the walk does not provide data on the intensity of the effort. (Slow meandering downhill or brisk climb up hill) Such a change may or may not indicate an underlying health condition. Your concern suggests it is worth a visit to your doc to sort out any condition affecting your health.

A leisure walk should not raise heart rate that much but if you spend that amount of time on a treadmill that heart rate change can happen. Usually, with that change in heart rate you should have a significant amount of exertion and high respiratory rate should happen at the same time. If the heart rate increases that much with minimal or no exertion, you should see a doctor.
