Best Answer

Heart rates tend to be lower in the morning. Heart rate increases at high temperatures. Dehydration causes an increase in heart rate. Heart rate during running varies by a few beats from day-to-day. Training heart rate does not predict racing heart rate. Listening to different types of music Watching scary movie Drinking coffee

Answer Nervousness and type of physical activity e.g. vigorous exercise increases the rate whilst sleeping slows it significantly. Children have a higher rate than adults and healthy athletes have lower rates than other adults. Overweight or obese people will have a higher rate than other people even when doing normal activities such as walking. The adult rate is between 60-100 beats per minute.

the stress and exercise can increase pulse rate

and the sleep decrease it

Smoking marijuana may increase your pulse rate, so does coffee and things with caffeine. Also running or jogging increases it or if your doing something that gives you an adrenaline rush. You cant exactly slow your average heartbeat but if its already beating fast you can sit down and relax, inhale through the nose exhale through the mouth, also some medications slow it down as well. Hope this helped!
