Just as when you exercise you breathe faster, when you sleep your breathing slows.

Your body will adjust it's rate of breathing to accomodate it's needs at the time, when you are sleeping less oxygen is needed since you are inactive.

What is the resporitory rest rate?

The respiratory rate refers to the number of breaths a person takes per minute. For adults, a normal resting respiratory rate typically ranges from 12 to 20 breaths per minute. This rate can vary based on factors such as age, fitness level, and overall health. Monitoring respiratory rate is important, as significant deviations can indicate respiratory or systemic issues.

What is the average respiratory rate after exercise?

The average respiratory rate after exercise typically increases to accommodate the heightened demand for oxygen and the need to expel carbon dioxide. While a resting respiratory rate for adults is usually around 12 to 20 breaths per minute, it can rise significantly after vigorous exercise, often reaching 30 to 40 breaths per minute or more, depending on the intensity and duration of the activity. This elevated rate can persist for several minutes as the body returns to its resting state.
