Detailed explanation-1: -A normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute. Generally, a lower heart rate at rest implies more efficient heart function and better cardiovascular fitness. For example, a well-trained athlete might have a normal resting heart rate closer to 40 beats per minute.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your heart rate is the number of times each minute that your heart beats, which is normally between 60 and 100 times per minute for adults. Your pulse is a way you can feel each time your heart beats.

Detailed explanation-3: -A normal heart rate, when you’re not being active, is generally between 60 – 100 beats per minute. This is called your resting heart rate.
