If I am just sitting my pulse is 81/82. Sometimes it is even 75/77. However, If strat moving around and just take a few steps to go from one room to another it goes up to 100. I notice during my activities in my kitchen my bets go up to even 115/118. It seems high to me. All these numbers are shown on my Fitbit watch. Is this normal?

    Hi Monica.

    Your resting heart beats seem fine to me. Your beats will increase because you giving your heart some work to do.

    ie-- it is having to pump the blood around your body.

    At rest anything between 60 and 100 beats per min is fine.

    At rest mine is as low as 45 to 55 beats per min.

    And between 115 and 135 beats per min doing activities.

    You have no need to worry

    A normal resting heart rate is 60 to 100 bmp. Its normal for it to go up when you stand up but should come back down. Typically to 80s. But everyones different. I have a fast heart rate so im on meds to slow it down.

    This is completely normal. HR can go up to 200bpm during exercise.

    This is physiological not pathological.
