I'm going to measure my heart rate by using my pointer finger and my middle finger to find me heart rate. I will either place my two fingers on my neck or wrist for a 15 sec count. Then multiply the number by 4 to calculate my beats per minute (bpm).

Three  Interesting Heart Facts:
1.) The average heart is the size of a fist in an adult.
2.) The heart can continue beating even when it's disconnected from the body.
3.) Men have larger hearts than women

1) I'm going to personally measure my heart rate using pr putting my hand gently against my wrist or neck.
2) As you press gently count each beat during  10-15 seconds then you multiply by 4-6
3) You can measure your heart rate before you exercise, for example while you're resting. If you're jogging or exercising then you can even have a heart rate monitor on your person. And after exercising you can measure your heart rate to check how much it accelerated.

'Pulse' is one of the most well-known medical terms. It is widely familiar as a measure of the heartbeat.

The pulse is a crucial measure of the heart rate. An extremely slow pulse combined with dizziness can indicate shock and help identify internal bleeding.

A pulse that is too quick, on the other hand, points to high blood pressure and cardiovascular problems.

With practice, it is easy to take your own pulse and those of other people.

But what is the pulse, why is it important, and what is the best way to find and measure the pulse? This article gives straightforward guidance.

Arteries run closely to the surface of the skin at the wrist and neck, making the pulse particularly easy to find at these points.

Here are the simple steps needed to take a pulse at the wrist. This is known as the radial pulse:

1. Turn one hand over, so it is palm-side up.

2. Use the other hand to place two fingertips gently in the groove on the forearm, down from the fold of the wrist and about an inch along from the base of the thumb.

3. When the position is right, you should feel the pulsation of your heart beat.

The pulse can also be found on the neck using two fingers in a similar way. Gently press into the soft groove on either side of the windpipe.

This is the pulse running through one of the carotid arteries. These are the main arteries that run from the heart to the head.

Less easy places to find a pulse are:

behind the knees

on the inside of an elbow when the arm is outstretched

in the groin

at the temple on the side of the head

on the top or the inner side of the foot

The video below, presented by a nurse, explains how to take a pulse:

The pulse is the expansion of the arteries. This expansion is caused by an increase in blood pressure pushing against the elastic walls of the arteries each time the heart beats.

These expansions rise and fall in time with the heart as it pumps the blood and then rests as it refills. The pulsations are felt at certain points on the body where larger arteries run closer to the skin.

Once the pulse has been found by following the steps above, hold still and carry out the following steps:

1. Use a timepiece or watch with a second hand, or look at a clock with a second hand.

2. Over the course of a minute or 30 seconds, count the number of beats felt.

3. The number of pulses over a minute is the standard heart rate measurement. This can also be calculated by doubling the number of pulses felt over 30 seconds.

4. The pulse should be between 60 and 100 bpm.

The heart should beat steadily, with a regular gap between each contraction, so the pulse should also be steady.

As a general rule, adults will have a resting heart rate of 60 to 100 beats per minute (bpm). In general, people with better physical fitness will have slower heart rates than pepole who exercise less. Athletes, for instance, may have a resting heart rate of just 40 to 60 bpm.

However, it is normal for the heart rate to vary in response to movement, activity, exercise, anxiety, excitement, and fear.

If you feel that your heart is beating out of rhythm or at an unhealthy speed of under 40 bpm or over 120 bpm, and this can be felt when taking a pulse, discuss this with a doctor.

You might also feel that your heart has missed or " skipped" a beat, or there has been an extra beat. An extra beat is called an ectopic beat. Ectopic beats are very common, are usually harmless, and do not need any treatment.

If there are concerns about palpitations or ectopic beats, however, visit a doctor.

Hospitals use monitors that can check the heart rate and the pulse. Heart rate monitors are available for home use and are also available online.

If you use a home monitor, you should:

check with your doctor that is has been validated

take your blood pressure at the same time every day

take several readings and record the results

A clinical development of recent years is the wide range of products now available on the consumer market for personal health monitoring

Cardiac monitors are used in hospital settings to track the vital signs of patients.

Numerous devices can be connected to software apps for mobile phones, and there are a number of health monitoring wearables available that combine the hardware and software in one device.

The United State (U.S.) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has a page listing a number of the apps cleared by the health product regulator. This might be a good place to start.

Devices are now available that connect to software apps for mobile phones. Some devices for home use include both hardware and software. Some provide readings equivalent to those of an electrocardiogram (ECG) machine.

It is easy to measure a pulse and it can give a useful indication of your state of health.

If you have any concerns regarding your heart rate, speak to a doctor.

Factors that affect the heart - miranda

~ There are a lot of different factors that play a role in your heart & how high/low your heart rate is.
~ The first two are lifestyle & nutrition. How often do you get good exercise ? What is your diet like ? These both play a major role on your heart. Eating too much junk food & getting little-to-no exercise can lead to a clog in the tube(s) that flows blood to your heart, this can lead to a heart attack.
~ The next factor is Hydration. You need to drink a lot of water. On the daily, you should be drinking at least 3 bottles a day, and always before & after you exercise.
~ Next is your age. As you age, your maximum heart beat will decrease.
~ Knowing all of these factors can help you “know your effort” as well as regulate your intensity level.

~ There are different ways you can measure your heart rate, the most common way to find your maximum heart rate is to simply subtract your age from 220. (example: 220 - 17 = 203)

~ If you’re looking to find your BPM ( beats per minute ) heart rate, you can set a timer for One minute, or use a stopwatch, and put your index finger & middle finger on either your wrist or neck. On your neck, your fingers should be right below your jaw. You will then feel your pulse. Count the amount of beats until the timer goes off. This is how you find your average heart rate, it should be somewhere in between 60-100 BPM.

The first thing that i would do after my workout is to
A. Find my pulse in my wrist or neck.
B. Then i would press gently and start counting my beats for 15 seconds.
Remember DO NOT use your your thumb because it has it's own pulse so u might get confused.
When u check your pulse in your neck you might be careful if you are older than than 65 , if you press too hard you might get  lightheaded or even fall.

# data[].attributes.body
1. After a workout check your pulse- you can check it on a fitness watch or two fingers on your neck or wrist
2.Press lightly on your neck once you feel your pulse count the beats for 15 seconds then multiply what you counted by 4
3.It's good to check your pulse after a light or heavy workout- like dance, a run, or just lifting boxes
4.Your heart beats 2,000 gallons of blood in a day, the average heart beats at least 100,000 times a day.
