🚴🏽♂️ As you get more aerobically fit, your heart gets bigger. The heart can increase in size by up to around 40-80mL from consistent aerobic training.
This means that at rest you pump more blood per beat and therefore need to produce fewer heart beats to deliver oxygen leading to a lower resting heart rate.
🧔🏽♂️ For men, a resting heart rate of:
55 BPM is top 10%
46 BPM is top 1%
👩🏼🦳 For women:
59 BPM is top 10%
51 BPM is top 1%
⚽️ Ronaldo reportedly has a resting heart rate around 32-33 BPM.
Resting heart rate typically fluctuates by around 10 BPM throughout the week based on sleep, hydration, caffeine intake, and EPOC from previous training.
Resting heart rate is influenced by genetics but interestingly doesn’t change significantly with age (although max heart rate drops fairly consistently year to year)
