Resting Heart Rate Definition
Your heart rate at complete rest, usually measured automatically overnight.
When it helps
As a long-term trend. It drifts down as you get fitter and spikes when you are run-down.
When it doesn't
As a single morning reading, which jumps around with sleep and caffeine. Watch the trend instead.
