Heart Rate and Exercise Experiment Results

Heart Rate and Exercise Experiment ResultsM3 Present selective information collected before and after a standard period of exercise with reference to validityFor M3 I am going to discuss data that was collect before and after the period of exercise. The data give be in reference to the validity of the results. There argon a number of things that may prepare affects the results of our period of exercise as we did not discuss what we eat before the exercise, polar weights, if there were any(prenominal) energy drinks drank before the exercise and if there were any pauses between pickings results.In the first remand to results it shows what Laura and Christines resting oculus evaluate and resting airing ramble per proceedings. The method of measuring was to time our shopping center prescribe for 15 secs then multiply the result by 4 to get what our union consider would be for a minute. The same method was utilize to find out our alert rate per minute. With this method I would rank that it would be close although it can all depend on the person as the heart rate may not always stay at the unrivaled rhythm so this may throw off the results invalid. Exercise, emotions, fever and some medications can cause your heart to beat faster, sometimes to well over atomic number 6 beats per minute. www.my.clevelandclinic.orgTable of results Lauras resting heart rate = 80 bpmLauras resting active rate= 20Christines resting heart rate= 56 bpmChristines resting active rate = 14Table of heart rate and breaths per minutes after 2 minutes exercise Heart rate per minute- Laura Heart rate per minute- ChristineBreathing rate per minute Laura Breathing rate per minute- Christine 8056201415211860601289448521208040361047436248462321680562014For our result we both ran up and down stairs for two minutes this was our method of exercise to make it accurate the exercise was tag so that we were both doing the same method. Although the level of the exercise could make th e results less accurate as one of us may have been running faster which would make one persons heart rate high than the others. Lauras weight would be heavier than Christines so this may be why my heart rate is higher than Christines as the heart needs to work harder to the heart blood pumping round the body. The level of fitness affects heart rate, which tends to change magnitude if youre overweight. An increased resting heart rate puts more(prenominal) stress on your heart during and following exercise. www.healthyliving.azcentral.comBefore taking part in the exercise or taking result we did not discuss what we ate that forenoon which can affect the results as what we eat can depend on how much energy that we have. If mortal eat carbohydrates before exercise it can help to increase blood glucose and glycogen levels. If you dont have plentiful glycogen, you wont have the energy to exercise to the best of your ability. www.bupa.co.ukThe results in the table of heart rate and breaths per minutes after 2 minutes exercise show the heart rate for Laura went down faster than Christines heart rate. Although being overweight can affect the rate in which the heart rate goes back to the resting heart rate. While being overweight may affect the heart rate, I do dance dvds and go on the treadmill so this may be why the heart rate did not allow in long to go back to the resting heart rate.While taking the heart rate and breath rate it was hard to know when were started taking the heart rate/ eupneic rate and when we stopped as Christine did not make this clear. Therefore, the mments may not have actually been 15 secs each time this would mean that the results are not accurate as the measurements could be a few secs out.With the breathing rate per minute results the Christines breathing rate started to rest as a slower pace than Lauras but after the third rendering her breathing rate started to decrease faster than Lauras. it was hard to measure the breathing rat e as at heart 15 secs there was only a few breaths taken so it did not really look accurate but once the amount of breaths per 15 secs was multiplied by 4 it all added up being it look more accurate although I still would not say that the method that we used to take the breaths was not the best to use for accuracy.For the breathing rate I would say that exercise for 5 minutes would be better than 2 minutes as after 2 minutes the breathing rate did not go overly higher but after 5 minutes the breathing rate would have been a lot higher there for the time in which the breathing rate went back to normal would have took longer although this would not really change the results much it would make the results more valid as there would be more off them. The resting rests for both the heart rate and breathing rate would be the most accurate result as it was taking three times for more accurate results then we added the three together and multiplied by 3 to find out what the of import rate would be for both of the readings.I think that if the heart rate and breathing rate was measure for 1 minute instead of 15 seconds then multiplying by 4 the results would be more accurate as there was breaks in between resetting the timer which would affect the rate in which the heart and breathing rate was going down as if there were no breaks at all the results would have been different making them more accurate than the results that we did get.
