Im 24 and use a fitness tracker every day to monitor my sleep and activity. Ive noticed my heart rate is usually over 80 BPM, except when Im asleep. Whats the ideal BPM I should aim for, and how can I manage it better?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The ideal resting heart rate for adults is generally between 60-100 beats per minute (BPM). Since your BPM is consistently above 80, it may indicate that you have a higher resting heart rate. To help keep your heart rate in control, you can try incorporating regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, managing stress levels, and avoiding stimulants like caffeine and nicotine. If you continue to have concerns about your heart rate, you may consider consulting with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.

I've been experiencing this breathlessness, and every time I check my pulse, it feels like there's a mild heartbeat with a skipped beat. Should I be worried about this?
Sometimes feeling breathless and experiencing palpitations can be concerning. It's important to get evaluated by a healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause. In the meantime, you can try using a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help with the palpitations and reduce the sensation of skipped beats. However, it's crucial to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan from a healthcare professional.
