Range of normal: Ususally between 60 and 100 beats per minute. An unusually high or low heart rate may indicate an underlying problem. Consult your doctor if your resting heart rate is consistently above 100 beats a minute (tachycardia) or below 60 beats a minute (bradycardia) particularly if you have other signs or symptoms, such as fainting, dizziness or shortness of breath. Rate higher with exercise than rest.

No: 100 is the high range or normal or the low range of tachycardia. The normal base heart rate is different for everyone, but ranges somewhere between 60-100 with the average in the 70 and 80's. If you have a continual heart rate of 100 all the time, discuss it with your primary and continue monitoring to make sure its not something underlying causing this mild tachycardia. Ekg may be needed as well.

Depends on your age: The following are guidelines for heart rate ranges at rest based on age: newborns = 100-160 beats/ min (bpm) infants/todders = 80-150 bpm 2-5 years old = 80-140 bpm 6-12 years old = 70-120 bmp >12 years old 60-100 bmp during exercise, maximum heart rate can be calculated by the formula 220-age.

60-130 bpm: The normal resting heart rate for an 11 year old is between 60 to 130 beats per minute. At peak exercise, an 11 year old heart rate may be as high as about 210 bpm.
