I'm overweight with a relatively sedentary lifestyle (desk job, not a lot of exercise), yet my resting h/r is often under 60 bpm, is this concerning?

No: Some peoples resting heart rates are naturally low. If you have no other symptoms and youve been to your physician for a general check up and he ruled everything out, then this is not concerning. Some medications can also cause low blood pressure. Check with your phyisician if you have dizziness or lightheadedness or are on other medications.

Heart Rate: You are fourtunate to have a low heart rate, probably genetic. No reason for concern, check with your doctor if you are concerned. My best.

Not if you have: No symptoms but please get that body moving.

Low HR: It depends. You may just have a low resting heart rate. As long as your blood pressure is fine and you don't feel lightheaded or dizzy, it's fine. If you do have symptoms, that's when it is a problem and may require a pacemaker.

Your are lucky: Try to lose weight anyway have follow ups with your doc a low heart rate is much better than a high one.

Depends: Technically speaking, the normal resting heart rate should be around 60- 90 or so. First question to ask is how low your heart rate drops and if you have any symptoms. Things like low sugars, low thyroid, abnormal electrolytes, sleep apnea, or even heart disease or conduction defects can all cause this and the only way to really sort it out is to see your pcp for a physical/labs/ecg.

Heart rate: Resting heart rate has many components to it. As yours is in the normal range and you are taking a drug that can affect depolarization rate, i don't think you need worry about your resting rate.

Not necessarily: Not necessarily concerning if you do not feel dizzy, have not passed out and if your heart rate picks up with activity. I would advise you to check your thyroid function ( simple blood test called "serum tsh") - hypothyroidism is associated with weight gain and low resting heart rate.

Yes: Usually pulse less than 60 may be okay in trained athlete but with sedentary life style and overweight will require evaluation with examination and ekg.

See a doctor: Exercise could increase heart rate. If your heart rate always below 60, we call it bradycardia. You need to see a doctor to get a complete exam and blood test and check your thyroid status. After complete exam from your doctor, if all the tests are fine, your doctor can recommend some exercise program or diet plan to help you safely lose weight.
