ritmo cardíaco. Lo rápido o lento que late un corazón. El
ejercicio hace que el ritmo cardíaco sea más rápido.

Heart rate me parece lo más usual. \"Heart beat\" no estaría correcto porque el heart rate se expresa en beats per minute.

Saludos.

Explanation:
That might be it, but back-translation is a chancy business, and you might do well to let the client know that. Furthermore, even if you were to do a back-translation that turned out to be fairly close to the original, that is no assurance that the Spanish version would be readily understandable. In fact, it could indicate just the opposite.
