Hello,
If our body is exerting,There is an increased pulse rate due to sympathetic outflow.If it is at rest ,reverse happens. This is what happened with you.Siting. Got you calmed down. No relation to drinking water.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
