Hi. Good that your BP is in good control. Having pulse rate of 100 while walking is fine. But if you constantly have pulse rate 100, even when you are resting, then it means it needs evaluation. Maybe you need to optimize your BP medicines to control Pulse rate also. Yoga is a very good way to normalize pulse rate.
Contact if any further questions. Take care.

Hi..... The threshold of a normal heart rate is generally based on the person's age.....
When the heart beats too rapidly, it pumps less efficiently and blood flow to the rest of the body, including the heart itself is reduced.....high pulse rate is generally caused by a disruption in the normal electrical impulses that control our heart's pumping action rhythm - the rate at which our heart pumps... Consult Physician for further evaluation.....
