I loved my HR monitor and would wear it all the time when I'm out and about because being a female I'm used to having a strap just below my chest I used to watch how it increased when I spoke to guys at the gym I find attractive then one certain male it used to drop everytime I spoke to him HAHAHA I have to invest in a new strap now that I've lost too much weight and it doesn't work because it doesn't sit properly on my chest

I think you all lie.
Mine is around 75. And I run, workout, and all of that good stuff with no caffeine, I don't understand.
My dad's is 50ish tho and he doesn't do a thing, ever, so maybe you all don't lie, I'm just jealous...

How would your pulse be different if you overtrained? Are you checking for irregularities, or a racing pulse?

Yeah, a higher resting heart rate can be a sign of over training.
Currently, my resting HR is about 55 (:

My post-surgery heart rate is 56 (from 51 pre-surgery). I'm a loser.

Days of Bodybuilding and Hard Cardio:
When I was doing cycling on a regular basis mine was about 38 - 42 bpm. At that time I was deeply into weight training as well.
Eating Disorder Days:
After months of low calorie intake my rhr went from 38 bpm to a regular 28 bpm (stayed there for months). Yes, that's a 2 second pause between beats. A low rhr, but quite unhealthy. Some people don't know the difference.
Today:
I just took it right now at it's around 49 - 51 bpm. I've just started doing cardio (haven't done it in years) a week ago and I'm hoping to get back to 38-42 bpm.

When I was going through all of my mil training, all I did was run and lift.
I did a crazy 6-day split and ran about 8 miles (with intervals thrown in mile 4-5) 6x a week. I had 5% BF (5' 9" 162 at the time) but I kept losing muscle mass because I ran so much. Anyway, my resting heart rate got down to 40-42 after 3 months of that.
Today, it's in the low 50's.

Mine is usually about 50-51. Used to be 42 a few years back but am not in the same condition as I was back then.

60-100 is considered normal range. Endurance athletes tend to have lower because their hearts are more efficient
