Learn what Resting Heart Rate is, how to read the chart in the Overview screen, and make the most out of your data.
What is Resting Heart Rate
Resting Heart Rate is the number of times your heart beats per minute when you are relaxed. It is measured when you sleep, when your body is at rest, and the data is most consistent. For most adults, a typical RHR ranges from 54 to 90 bpm.
How to read the RHR chart
Sleep RHR
Your Sleep RHR is shown as blue dots, with each dot representing a single day.
- Lower RHR: Your body is functioning efficiently with good cardiovascular health.
- Higher RHR: Your body may be under strain, such as stress, illness, or tiredness.
Typical RHR Range
The Typical RHR range shows what's normal for your body when you're feeling well. This is your personal baseline, represented as a highlighted area in the chart, and can help you recognise patterns over time.
- Within or below your range: Your body is working efficiently.
- Above your range: Your body may need extra care.
