I'm a man, 24 yo. my heart rate jumps from 60 to 85 bpm very quickly when i'm sitting down, resting for an hour. i workout 6 days/week. is it normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There is a normal: Fluctuations of heart rate between the phases of respiration in a normal person. 85/min is a normal heart rate. Are you having any other symptoms? Are you drinking coffee or energy drinks in excess? Are you using drugs like marihuana? If u have no other symptoms and u can exercise without any problems, you are probably ok. But, a good history and physical a good idea if that bother you.
