I'm noticing some weird fluctuations in my heart rate. Out of nowhere, it sometimes shoots up to 90-110. Heres what Ive tracked: when Im sleeping, it varies between 65-80, and when Im resting, it's around 70-90. But it gets to 90-110 when Im stressed. Climbing up to my apartment on the 3rd floor gets it to 110-120, a 5-minute walk pushes it to 100, and a 30-minute walk averages at 140 according to my smartwatch. After an hour walk, my watch shows an average of 165. And when I skip for just 5 minutes, my heart rate jumps to 140. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Ive stopped exercising because it seems like my heart rate goes up too much. I'm 32, by the way.

Based on the information you provided, your heart rate seems to be fluctuating quite a bit. It is normal for your heart rate to increase during physical activity, stress, or even when climbing stairs. However, consistently high heart rates during rest or sleep could indicate an underlying issue. I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to incorporate moderate-intensity exercises like brisk walking or swimming into your routine and monitor your heart rate closely.
