Normal heart rate for an adult person: 60-100 bpm; may be lower in extremely healthy athletes. In a healthy person, a slower heart rate without any associated problems indicates that a beat can provide adequate perfusion throughout entire circulation. If there are associated conditions such as fatigue or shortness of breath, then the slower rate may indicate a health concern.

∙ 12y agoIt is typically 160/110 for a normal healty adult. Below that may mean you are at high risk of stroke or heart attack. Resting hr should be around 150 bpm. Hope this helps. Dr Jack Mayhoff.

What is a normal heart rate for men and women?
A normal resting heart rate is 60-100, with women being at the higher end of that spectrum and men being lower. For citation see http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/heart-rate/AN01906
Normal heart rate for a 50 year old man?
The normal heart rate for adult men and women both is between 60-100 beats per minute. However, this rate can vary for athletes, and be normal at a much lower rate. It is also normal for the heart rate to be above 100 during exercise or excitement.The normal heart rate for women is 60-100 beats per minute. There are many factors that influence a heart rate. They include: Activity level Fitness level Air temperature Body position (standing up or lying down, for example) Emotions Body size Medications
Does being male or female effect heart rate?
Heart rate of men is lower than women because size of the heart in men is 25% larger than in women. Larger heart can pump more blood than smaller heart in one beat. Another reason of low heart rate in men than women is capacity of lungs in men is 25-30% higher than women. These are 2 reason of low heart rate or pulse rate in men than women.
How and why does aging affect the maximal heart rate?
Young children generally have a maximal heart rate approaching 220 beats per minute. This maximal rate falls throughout life. By age 60 maximal heart rate in a group of 100 men will average about 160 beats per minute. This fall in heart rate seems to be a linear process so that maximal heart rate can be estimated by the formula 220- AGE. This is an ESTIMATE, however. If we actually measure the maximal heart rates of those same 100 men during a maximal exercise test we would probably see a range of heart rates between 140 and 180. There is no strong evidence to suggest that training influences the decline in maximal heart rate. This reduction appears to be due to alterations in the cardiac electrical conduction system (SA node and Bundle of His), as well as down regulation of beta-1 receptors, which decreases the heart's sensitivity to catecholamine stimulation.
Where can I find a pulse rate chart?
Men: 70 beats per minute Women: 76-80 Children: 90 Infants: 120 Those are resting values. Anywhere from 60-120 is average at rest. It gets complicated if you want to know about exercising heart rates- Heart rates increase with physical activity - But in general the better shape you and your heart are in the lower the (increased) heart rate will be when exercising. For a complete chart of target heart rates by age, take a look at this page from the American Heart Association: http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=4736

Is 56 to low of a heart rate at age 43?
A resting heart rate of 56 is only slightly outside normal range of 60 to 80. Men tend to have lower resting heart rate than women. If one is athletic, then it tends to be lower also. If 56 is a sudden change from your normal without being athletic, then a medical visit may be prudent. There are a number of medical conditions which can cause a lower heart rate.
Does gender affect cellular respiration?
No. What you may be thinking of is aerobic respiration (normal breathing), for which the breathing rate (as well as heart rate) is typically a bit slower in men.
What does an sed rate of 17 mean?
Sed rate is a type of measure of infection in the blood. Sed rate of 17 is within the normal range for both men and women. The normal rate for women is 0-29mm/hr. and the normal rate for men is 0-22 mm/hr.

What is normal heart rate for 61 year old male?
For a healthy adult, the "normal" pulse rate is 80 - 100 beats per minute. Factors such as cardiovascular and overall fitness, height/weight ratio, and genetics may affect this number. For example, a distance runner may have a resting heart rate of 35 or 40, while an obese adult may have a resting heart rate of 85. The normal pulse rate for men and women falls between 60 and 100 beats per minute.

How fast is a normal heart beat?
It depends on your gender, age, and physical conditioning. In general, a normal resting heart rate for an adult is between 70-80 beats per minute with women tending to have a slightly higher heart rate than men. Also children and the elderly tend to also have a higher rate that can be as high as 100 bpm. The other factor is if you are physically fit. The more aerobic exercise you do the more your heart rate tends to be lower, even down to 60 bpm.25-300
