If your resting heart rate is in the mid-60's, you are doing great. If it is in the 50's and you are active, you are doing superb. If your resting heart rate is in the 50's and you are not active, see your doctor for an EKG. You may have some issues. Take this from experience.

∙ 14y agoGenerally speaking, the lower the heart rate the better the fitness level. For example, if your heart rate is 120 beats per minute, while you jog 5km., and as you jog regularly over the course of a few months, you heart rate will drop to maybe 105. This shows that the heart needs to beat fewer times to achieve the same amount of work due to the increasing fitness level.

How does physical activity for health differ from physical activity for fitness?
physical activity for health doesnt really differ from physical activity for fitness that much.. It is almost exactly the same. it really depends on what you consider as 'health' and what you consider as 'fitness'. physical activity does help you health, as it teaches your body to become more routined to whatever you are doing physically. it teaches your body to endure and last longer and it is good for muscle strengthening. this is similar to physical activity for fitness. it increases your speed, suppleness, improves your skills as you become more physical. it also improves strength and endurance, helping you to last longer and longer each time you physicall become active in an activity, whether it be playing sports or just going for a run . so help my answer has helped . :)
