A normal pulse rate for a healthy adult, while resting, can range from 60 to 100 beats per minute (BPM). During sleep, this can drop to as low as 40 BPM; during strenuous exercise, it can rise as high as 200–220 BPM. Generally, pulse rates are higher in younger persons. A resting heart rate for an infant is as high as or higher than an adult's pulse rate during strenuous exercise.

Average adult heart rate is 60 - 100. To find your maximum heart rate use the formula: 220 minus your age.

80 per minute is the average. Below 60 and it's called bradycardia by definition. Above 100 and it's called tachycardia.
Brady- and tachy- mean slow and fast, respectively.
