Exercise for a Healthy Heart > Monitoring Your Heart Rate

Monitoring Your Heart Rate

The best way to keep track of the health of your heart while working out is to monitor your heart rate. How do you accomplish this? You can monitor your heart rate while exercising by either taking a pulse count or wearing a heart rate monitor.

Knowing your heart rate will help you determine progress, intensity and how your body is responding to particular exercises.
