ulse Rate Chart

Using a normal pulse rate charts help indicate health and fitness of an individual. Here is an illustration of the resting
heart rate chart as well as the increased heart rates during exercises which is indicative of an healthy individual.

Defined, as the rate at which the heart beats in one minute, pulse rate or the heart beat is indicative of the
health of the person. As the heart pumps blood into the body, the blood vessels close to the wrist, upper
arm and neck start pulsating and throbbing. While the normal pulse rate for humans is usually 60 to 100
beats per minute, there are certain medical conditions such as cardiac arrhythmia which may alter the
normal pulse rate of an individual. The other influencing factors are the person's age, gender and fitness
level. So a toddler's pulse rate is significantly high at around 110 BPM which is almost close to an adult's
pulse rate after a strenuous exercise. Similarly females aged 12 and older, tend to have faster heart rates
than men. Also athletes, who do a lot of cardiovascular conditioning, may have heart rates near 40 beats
per minute. It is also observed that the pulse is lower when you are at rest and increases when you are
involved in any strenuous exercise.

How To Calculate the Pulse Rate?

You can check your pulse rate by placing tips of your index, second and third fingers on the palm side of
your other wrist, below the base of the thumb or on your lower neck, on either side of your windpipe. Now
count the beats for 10 seconds and multiply this number by six to get your pulse. Now use a pulse rate
chart to find out how well your heart is working and your general health and fitness levels. Checking your
pulse rates when resting, during exercises or after it, can give information about the overall fitness.

Normal Pulse Rate Chart 

Resting Pulse Rate Chart: It is observed that the lower the resting heart rates, the healthier is your
heart. For calculating this, you have to sit quietly for 10 minutes before checking your pulse rates. Here is
a table to demonstrate the ideal resting heart rates.

Babies to age 1: 100 -160

Children aged 1 to 10: 60 -140

Children aged 10+ and adults: 60 -100

Well-conditioned athletes: 40 - 60

Heart Rate During Exercises: Strenuous exercises increase the pulse rates. A heart beat calculator can
help measure the increase in heart rates. It should be noted, that exercising above 85 percent of your
maximum heart rate increases both cardiovascular and orthopedic risk and does not add any extra
benefit. It is therefore advisable to check with your health care provider, before starting an exercise
program. Check the heart beat chart below, to find whether you need to increase or decrease your rate of
exercise.
