Hi,

Gym workouts can lean to elevated heart rate only during exercise. If your heart rate is fast during the hole day, then another reason should be considered.

I would advise you to regulate your sleep, try to sit in front of computer and TV as little as it is possible, be much in fresh air, avoid stress, try to lose some weight (no strict diet). If you still experience elevated heart rate in 2 months, I would advise you to see your doctor to undergo some tests, such as ECG, blood electrolytes etc.

Wishing you good health
