how many beats per minute is normal for pulse
Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Normal is defined as a heart rate between 60 and 100 beats per minute. Less than 60 beats per minute is bradycardia (low heart rate), more than 100 beats per minute is tachycardia (rapid heart rate). A resting heart rate of 90 is on the high side of normal, but depends on many factors-firstly, how fit are you? Do you exercise regularly?
Heart rate, also known as pulse, is the number of times a person's heart beats per minute. A normal heart rate depends on the individual, age, body size, heart conditions, whether the person is sitting or moving, medication use and even air temperature. Even emotions can have an impact on heart rate.
