First, we will need your resting heart rate.

One's heart rate is typically measured in beats per minute (bpm). Heart rate can vary as the body's need to absorb oxygen and excrete carbon dioxide changes, such as during exercise or sleep. Resting heart rate is a person's heart rate when they are at rest, not having recently exerted themselves.

To get your rate, use the tips of your index and middle fingers to feel your pulse on your neck or wrist. Now count how often your heart beats in the course of a minute. Here's a little timer to help you: [0:00] [Start | Reset]. Isn't that neat?
