Crazy question,but i don%26#039;t have a heart rate monitor ,and i know you can check your heart rate by taking your pulse,but when exactly do you check it?Do you stop walking and check it?Do you walk for 20 minutes then stop and check your pulse?I%26#039;m asking because it%26#039;s pretty hard to check your pulse while your walking ,so i%26#039;m just wonder exactly when during the workout do you check it?
Do you check your heart rate while your walking?
Yeah, I walk around all the time with my hand on my chest counting.
Do you check your heart rate while your walking?
I check it while im running
Do you check your heart rate while your walking?
I don%26#039;t really walk, and I usually run on a treadmill, so it checks my heart rate automatically.
Personally, I find the level test more useful. It goes from 1-10, with 1 being a casual walk when you%26#039;re able to carry an engaging conversation on, and 10 being a sprint when you feel like you%26#039;re pushing yourself to the limit.
A good rule of thumb- if you feel like you are talking a casual walk and can talk freely, speed up; If you cannot say a complete sentence, slow down. Anything between is ok. Do not be scared of getting sweaty- it shows that you are working out.
they have a ton of those scales (1-10, 1-5, 1-25, etc) and they are helpful if you do not have a heart rate monitor
