Your resting heart rate often reflects improvements in cardiovascular fitness. It's a good idea to monitor your resting heart rate periodically. A decrease in RHR will typically represent an improvement in your fitness level. To determine your RHR, take your pulse right after you wake-up (before you get out of bed and ideally not after being awoken by an alarm clock). Count your pulse for one full minute to get the RHR. Take your pulse on three separate mornings and calculate the average.Friday, March 18, 2011
