When you engage in physical activities such as dancing for health and fitness
improvements, you need to monitor your effort through physiological indicators.
Physiological indicators are those signs that are physiologic in nature or have to do
with bodily processes. These include heart rate, rate of perceived exertion and pacing
associated with (MVPAs) moderate to vigorous physical activity.
Heart Rate Also known as pulse rate this is the number of times a person’s heart
beats per minute. It indicates the effort your heart is doing based on the demand you
place in your body. The more demanding your physical activity means that the rate
is faster. The heart rate provides a good indicator of the relative challenge experienced
during physical activity.
Pace and Pacing These refer to the rate or speed of doing physical activities. This
means that a person can take it slow when engaged in physical activities or do them
quickly depending on the FITT principle. Pacing allows you to change the way you
perform or complete an exercise or physical activity so that you can successfully see
changes. It regulates your participation in physical activities through gradual and
careful introduction of changes in the physical activity, whether an increase in
intensity, frequency, or participation.
