Methods
Our class obtained resting heart rate and
perceived exertion during it performance of
the exergaming project. The exergaming
project involved our class first counting their
resting heart rate. Next, e played the dance
games Just Dance and Dance Central. Then
after plying recorded our perceived exertion
ranking on cl from 0 to 10 with 0 being
extremely easy and 10 being all out effort.

After performing this study, I discovered

there to be moderate but not extremely
high correlation between resting heart
rate and perceived exertion . To certain
extend, resting heart rate helps to
determine perceived exertion level with
focusing on the principle that the slower
your resting heart rate I the more
effective it becomes with pumping blood
during exercise. As a result, on who h low
resting heart rate experiences lower level
of exertion due to the fact that one is
supplying oxygen more effectively to
ones cells. In addition, the results of the
study clearly that resting heart rat I not
the only factor determining perceived
exertion. Additional factors may include
BMI, lung capacity and muscular
endurance.
