Default What's your resting pulse-rate right now?

Out with it. The lowest recorded in a healthy individual is 28.

Mine is 64, which isn't hot but I'm a smoker...

Mine is currently at 92, cuz I am handcrafting some Gifts while stressing myself out to find a good Gift-Idea for my Dad.

The poll needs fixing.

What if you're an INTP and an elite athlete?

I usually have a really high resting pulse rate somewhere in the range of 80(!!) I am fit though with no medical problems... just one of those weird things.

EDIT: I just checked, 64 that is unusually low for me.

I don't think anyone has ever claimed I am any other type. When I'm in shape I've seen 42bpm based on measuring over twenty second period. High 40s low 50s is more normal.

I have to take issue with your claim of lowest as 28bpm. The only athlete I've heard of to hit 28 is Miguel Indurain. That was during the early to mid 90s when almost the entire professional peleton was on high dosages of EPO.

I'd always found that INTPs are very astute at recognizing jokes.

I didn't say it was my lowest recorded pulse.

56... also a smoker... I'm pretty comfortable at the moment though (no- not THAT way!) so that may have something to do with it!
