Lecture Notes

You can see in this picture that a gentleman is wearing a heart rate monitor around his chest, that he's checking his heart rate on the watch that's on his wrist. Measuring your heart rate while you're working out, or while you're engaging in an aerobic activity, is a great way to gauge the intensity of that exercise, and these digital electronic heart rate monitors really help you to do that pretty accurately.
