Week 4 Physiological

This document discusses various physiological indicators associated with moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), including heart rate, resting heart rate (RHR), maximum heart rate (MHR), and rate of perceived exertion (RPE). It provides information on how to calculate RHR and MHR, describes the Borg RPE scale from 6 to 20, and includes an activity where students measure their RHR before dancing, MHR after dancing, and RPE to analyze the effects of aerobic activity on these physiological indicators.

Lesson 4

Chinita S. Apostol
Subject Teacher
A persons heart rate (or pulse),
refers to the amount of times
their heart beats per minute.

Our heart rates (HR) vary


Heart Rate tremendously depending on the
different demands placed upon it.

(Virtual Heart App)


• Resting Heart Rate (RHR)

A normal resting heart


rate can range
anywhere from 40 to
100 beats per minute
(bpm). A chart relating
resting heart rate and
fitness level. As can be
seen on this chart,
your resting heart rate
can vary with your
fitness level and with
age — the fitter you
are generally the lower
the resting heart rate.
This is due to the heart
getting bigger and stronger
with exercise, and getting
more efficient at pumping
blood around the body - so at
rest more blood can be
pumped around with each
beat, therefore less beats per
minute are required. (the
best time to take your RHR is
first thing in the morning
when you wake up.
Maximum Heart Rate
Calculation of Maximum Heart
Rate
The easiest and best known
method to calculate your
maximum heart rate (MHR) is to
use the formula
MHR = 220 – Age
RATING OF PERCEIVED EXERTION
The Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale
is another common method of determining the
intensity of exercise. By observing subjective
perceptions of intensity, students rate the level
of steady state work using the 6 to 20 RPE scale
or 0 to 10 RPE scale developed by Borg (1982)
The numbers below relate to phrases used
to rate how easy or difficult you find an activity.
For example, 0 (nothing at all) would be
how you feel when sitting in a chair; 10 (very,
very heavy) is how you feel at the end of an
exercise stress test or after a very difficult
activity. Relating real tasks in life to RPE helps the
students rate how they feel.

Activity
Practical Test
1. Aerobic Activity
2. Take your RHR (Resting Heart Rate) before
dancing and the MHR (Maximum Heart Rate)
a minute after dancing.
3. Record the result.
4. Get your RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion).
Guide Questions
1. What is your RHR, MHR and RPE?
2. Which part /steps in the dance made your
heart beats fast? Why?
3. What is the purpose of monitoring your heart
beat during exercise?
4. Explain how aerobic activities affects
physiological indicators.
