Heart rate is the measure of the hearts electrical system. Electrical impulses automatically are generated by special cells in a node at the top of the heart called the SA (Sinoatrial) node. These electrical pulses stimulate the heart muscle and cause it to contract. In turn, the heart contracts and moves the blood throughout the heart. There are 9 pulse points throughout the body. The most common is the one your feel on your wrist.
Normal heart rate is between 60-100 beats per minute (bpm)
For heart rates above or below these values, your health may be adversely affected depending on your health or physical condition.
If your heart rate falls out of this range. Its best to check with your doctor immediately if you suspect a problem with your heart.
