That is a fact... the speed at which you reach "rest" is key.How fast your pulse drop to a normal level after a hard effort is a much better indicator of fitness for most people.
Sooo, I run around the block 10 times, (ya right) get my heart rate really up there then chill out. What's a good time frame for it to come back down to a reasonable resting rate? 6, 12 hours? ;)Originally posted by Rich Rohrich

Keep in mind, it takes some time to get to "rest". Laynig down, no talking, clear mind... a lot of stuff affects your heart rate. That being said, when I'm in what I feel is "good" shape, it's around 70-73 (best since I started paying attention).

Your rate would be inordinately low very first thing in the morning so I wouldn't call that a true evaluation.
