Resting heart rate offers vital insights into overall health; a lower rate implies a more efficient heart, indicating better physical fitness and longevity.
Factors influencing resting heart rate include age, stress, hormones, anxiety, medication, and physical activity, with averages ranging from 60 to 100 bpm for adults.
According to the AHA, a resting heart rate that deviates from the norm can reveal significant underlying health issues, including body weight and blood pressure.
Dr. Joseph Ebinger emphasizes that regular cardiovascular training contributes to a lower resting heart rate, thereby improving heart efficiency and overall health.
