<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\nPeople who are 15 years old or older should have a resting heart rate that is between 60 and 100 beats per minute (BPM), in accordance with the recommendations of the American Heart Association.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, a slow heart rate is typical for persons who engage in strenuous physical activity, are physically fit, or who take certain medications, such as beta-blockers.
\nAbnormally low pulse rates are a symptom that can be caused by a number of different conditions, including hypothyroidism and sick sinus syndrome.<\/p>\n
