How is heart beat regulated during exercise?

The rate of the heart beat is regulated by the SA node (SinoAtrial Node/aka the Pacemaker). It determines how fast the heart pumps by sending electrical signals faster or slower to the rest of the heart.


What happens to the heart rate with vagal stimulation?

Your heart is able to independently contract without nerve stimulation. However, frequency of these contractions if the heart was not innervated at all would roughly be 100 beats per minute. A resting individual does not need his or her heart to beat that fast to adequately supply blood to the rest of the body. So when at rest the vagus nerve (the branch innervating the heart) kicks in and slows these contractions down so as not to waste energy.


How much does your heat beat per minute during rest?

Depends on who you are, what your over all health is, and just what your body does. Mine beats at about 80-90 beats per minute during rest. The way to tell if you're healthy is to measure how long it takes your heart to get under 100 after you have exercised to the point where your heart beat is over 100. The faster the better.
