Hello
Hello my name is Dean Owen, im 17. i was just wondering why a boy at my age has a high BPM, 88 BPM. Im an active person that does a lot of cardiovascular excersise followed by weight training. there is no proof that there is anybody in my family that does have a high BPM. and i do eat the right foods. can you get back to me asap before its too late!
Just taking your pulse can raise it. A rate of 88 could also be a result of the way you are breathing. My advice is to stop taking your pulse.
Normal is between 60-100 bpm. Sounds like you're ok. Who told you it was high?
If it really worries you, then you should see a doctor. Also if you drink caffiene that could also cause it to be higher than maybe whats normal for you.
