I've always had a really high metabolism (well, I anticipate it'll slow down in another decade or two, but til then...), so my resting heart rate has always been on the high end. I think it's typically in the 70's, although I just took it and it's at 78. I know I could stand to exercise more at this point in my life, but I'm definitely not out of shape.

I remember when I was in high school and college and would do cardio, my heartrate would regularly get over 200.

Your minimum percentage of your maximum heart rate is more useful for comparing between people. Since the majority of the forum don't know their max hr it's difficult to compare.

Mine is 91. Should I be concerned?!

P.S. I hope I didn't mess your poll up...I chose the 85+ 'I'm an INTP' option.

60 right now while surfing the web, and I'm drinking a soda with caffeine in it.

Mine's 61 at the moment - anything between 60 and 70 is normal for me, I think.
