what is the normal pulse rate in men and in women?

Hi , Rajan.. !!  To answer your question :-

Your pulse rate is the number of times your heart beats per minute. And while pulse rates vary from person to person, they are influenced by factors such as age , gender and fitnees level. There is also a slight difference in rates by gender, as men tend to have a slightly lower resting and maximum heart rate than women.

Your pulse rate is an excellent indicator of your overall heart health . In fact, according to a New England Journal of Medicine study, men with an abnormally high resting heart rate of more than 75 beats per minute are three times more likely to die of a heart attack or experience other heart ailments.

For nonprofessional purposes, maximal heart rate is calculated by subtracting your age from 220 if you are a male or from 226 if you are a female. Medical experts advise that target heart rate when exercising should be between 70 and 85 percent of your maximal pulse. This is the zone of the so-called cardio exercise, when your metabolism is peaking and your heart is not pushed to the limits.

• Healthy pulse rate for mena and women is 60 - 100 beats per minute .
