You will need a stopwatch or a clock (not all the time if you have one otherwise use a phone)
Then you will hold two finger on the underside of your wrist. You should be able to feel a pulse or a pumping in the wrist. You will then count every time you feel that "pump" count it. Be sure to start with zero. Do this for 1 whole minute. see what it is then
a pulse rates of hamsters?
"normal" is 72 beats per minute, but pulse rates in the 50s are not uncommon in aerobically fit men. Pulse rates in the 30s are unusual but can occur in very fit men.
The normal pulse rate for an adult is 60 to 100 beats per minute. In general, people that are physically fit have lower resting pulse rates, while people that are less physically fit tend to have a bit higher resting pulse rates.
Fit people have a resting pulse rate of 70 or less. The less fit you are, the higher your pulse rate.
to see if the pulse rate is beating at a normal rate
Pulse rates are only measured in how many times per minute your heart beats.
There is a normal RANGE for pulse rates in the young adult. It is usually between 60-80, resting (but can be higher during activity, of course).
That is not a normal resting pulse for humans.
In the field, we tend to avoid the word "normal," because what's normal for you may not be normal for someone else. Typically, we look for pulse rates between 70 and 100 for adults. If you tend to be higher than that, then your pulse rate is normal for you. If your pulse rate is running above 120 or below 60, I would be concerned. Check your pulse everyday, as well as before and after certain everyday activities so that you know what to look for day in and day out. If it's the same all the time, then it's normal for you.
During sleep, the body slows down, and it is normal for your pulse rate to drop a bit. However, your oxygen level should not drop. It should remain over 90% minimally, and preferably over 95%. As long as your pulse stays between 50-99, it is considered normal. However, for athletes, it is often lower than the average person.
Yes, the pulse rates of different locations should be the same since they are all coming from the heart.
