How does your resting pulse rate compare to your standing pulse?
Resting pulse rate is typically lower than standing pulse rate due to the body's increased demand for oxygen and blood flow when in an upright position. When standing, the heart works harder to maintain blood circulation against gravity, resulting in a higher pulse rate. Conversely, resting pulse rate reflects a state of relaxation and less physical demand, leading to a more efficient heart rate. The difference between the two rates can indicate cardiovascular fitness and overall health.
Why is your pulse different lying down than when you are standing?
When you are lying down your pulse rate is much slower because your body is not having to work as hard to pump blood around your body. When you are standing your heart has to work much harder to got blood all around the body and it has to work against gravity to get blood to your head which makes your pulse rate much faster. This is also the case for when you are sitting down.
