A resting heart rate of 85–100 bpm is still within the upper normal range.
During sleep, heart rate normally goes down — so below 80 bpm while sleeping is normal.
Treatment is usually not needed if:
• No palpitations
• No chest pain
• No breathlessness
• No dizziness
Common reasons for higher resting pulse:
• Anxiety
• Stress
• Caffeine
• Lack of fitness
• Poor sleep.
If pulse is constantly above 100 at rest or you have symptoms, then evaluation (ECG, thyroid test, etc.) may be needed.
Based on your symptoms, this may require proper clinical assessment and prescription. You may book an online consultation with me for detailed evaluation and personalised treatment plan.

For a 29-year-old male:
• Normal resting heart rate: 60–100 bpm
• During sleep: usually lower than daytime, often 50–80 bpm
If your resting pulse is:
• 85–100 bpm at rest
•
Next Steps
You should consider evaluation if you have:
• Palpitations
• Dizziness
• Chest pain
• Breathlessness
• Irregular heartbeat sensation
Otherwise:
✔ Check pulse after sitting quietly for 5 minutes
✔ Avoid caffeine before measurement
✔ Track for 1–2 weeks
✔ Consider checking:
• Thyroid (TSH)
• Hemoglobin
• Blood pressure
If resting HR is consistently above 100 (true tachycardia), then evaluation is needed.
Health Tips
✔ Improve cardiovascular fitness (30–40 min brisk walk daily)
✔ Hydrate properly
✔ Reduce caffeine/nicotine
✔ Improve sleep quality
✔ Practice slow breathing exercises
Often, improving fitness lowers resting heart rate naturally over weeks.
If you tell me:
• Your weight
• Whether you exercise regularly
• Any anxiety symptoms
I can assess whether this is simple conditioning-related or needs cardiac workup. Booking an online consultation would allow structured cardiovascular risk assessment and personalized guidance for optimizing heart health.

No treatment is required as while resting decrease in heart rate is normal since your body is relaxed.
Next Steps
Try to relax and avoid wearing that watch which is keeping track of all this so that you can actually relax rather than keep checking your vitals
Health Tips
Consult if - you wake with sweat / anxious / difficulty in breathing.
