Any idea how low resting rates can go? And is it always a good thing or can it be too low?

Outside that range (above or below) is a potential health concern, but if you're physically fit a resting heart rate below 60 is not an immediate cause for concern. 40-60 can be a normal resting heart rate for physically fit individuals. You can always contact your doctor if you're concerned about it. I mostly know these numbers because my resting heart rate was down to 45 for a few years and I did talk to my doctor about it.
