Since 2001 I've kept a log of my physical activity, including my heart rate on wake-up. The more I exercise, the lower the rate my heart will beat at rest. I've been riding a fair amount - for me - lately. Currently I wake up with my heart beating at about 45, and it can sometimes drop to 42. At the moment, after sitting quietly for much of the day, it's 42.
