Depends on how active he is. My grandpa sits on his tush all day long. Many other people are like this. Resting heart rate will probably be around 60 in this case. If he is active, 80-85 would be fine too. Basically, anywhere from 60-85 is a normal resting heart rate. A little lower isn't a big deal and a little higher isn't a big deal either.
