Is there any difference between heart beat and pulse rate? Many times I feel my heart is pounding too fast but pulse rate is not that much?

Mainly due to anxiety, exercise, stress that you feel like your heart is beating loudly but it does not mean pulse rate will increase as its measure of your heart rate. When the amount/volume of blood pumped out is more then it can feel like pounding too.
