This document outlines an activity to help students record and assess their heart rate data before, during, and after physical exercise. The objectives are for students to track their resting heart rate, training heart rate, and intensity in a log. Students will use a provided template to record the time spent on an activity, and their heart rate and perceived exertion both before and after exercises they do in PE class or otherwise. Keeping this heart rate log is meant to help students understand how fitness affects their body and allows them to influence others in society.

1. Activity 1:
HR LOG

2. I. Objectives:
At the end of the activity, you will be able to:
• record your own resting heart rate (rhr), training
heart rate (thr) and training intensity (ti);
• assess and report your own heart rate before and
after performing a physical activity; and
• realize the importance of keeping track of your
own fitness data in relation to improving personal
fitness necessary in influencing others in the
society.

3. II. Materials:
• “HR (Heart rate) Log” template
• Activity notebook and ballpen
• RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) chart

4. III. Procedure:
1. Below is an HR log, a template that allows you to self-assess and
report your heart rate before and after you perform a physical
activity, the time spent, and your heart Rate of Perceived
Exertion (RPE) on the physical activities you do on a daily basis.
2. Reflect on the physical activities you did before going to school
today, and/or in PE classes and fill in the needed data in the
given template
3. You may start with the warm-up session that will be given to
