	Beats and Breaths Our beats and breaths calculator will amaze you … and may even leave you breathless. In a typical minute your heart beats about 72 times and you take in about 15 breaths. In terms of numbers for beats and breaths, that's more than 4,000 heartbeats and 900 breaths in an hour. And in your lifetime? Let us do the math with our beats and breaths calculator! By entering the month, day and year of your birth we'll estimate your beats and breaths so far.
