Charismatic, irrepressible and engaging, Mr. Barry always seemed to get up again. In 1977, while on the council, he was shot during the siege of the District Building (now the John A. Wilson Building) by Hanafi Muslims, who also had taken over the Islamic Center and Bânai Bârith offices. Mr. Barryâs wound was superficial, but it nevertheless enhanced his mystique.
Most peopleâs resting heart rate is between 60 and 100 bpm but the hearts of professional athletes beat around 40 times per minute. The researchers found that the risk of dying from any illness or health condition raises by around nine per cent for every 10 bpm over.
Such heart rate at rest indicates cardiac efficiency of an individual, and ranges between 60 to 100 bpm (beats per minute) for adults. However, values closer to the lower limit of this range qualify as a good resting heart rate. In fact, well trained athletes show a resting heart rate between 40 to 60 bpm.
