A normal resting heart rate ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute. Learn how to measure and lower heart rate as well as what factors can affect your heart rate.
Most people don’t think twice about what their heart rate is unless they’re experiencing distress or symptoms of a heart problem. However, it’s important to know what a normal heart rate should be, even if you don’t have heart problems. For adults older than 18 years of age, a normal resting heart rate should be between 60 and 100 beats per minute (bpm). Children ages 6 through 15 years should have a heart rate between 70 and 100 bpm. Let’s take a look at what these numbers mean, how to measure your heart rate, and what factors might cause your heart rate to go up or down.
