On average, men age 65 and over have a 25% chance of developing heart disease over ten years. However, if no additional risk factors are present, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or smoking (or if these conditions are controlled by medications), the chance of developing heart disease is 11% over ten years. Women of the same age, on average, have a 13% chance of developing heart disease over ten years. The risk is only 8% over ten years if no other risk factors are present.

heart rate is heart rate. age affects the maximum heart rate you should achieve with exercise because you dont want to overstrain your heart. however as people get older and as the pacemaker of their heart fails they can have a low heart rate.
