You have lots of options to measure your heart rate. One of the easiest options is to measure your pulse by placing two fingers on the thumb side of the wrist until you feel the pulse beating there.
To get an accurate reading, count the pulse for one minute but at the very least for 30 seconds. If you count it by 30 seconds, multiple it by two to get your heart rate.
There are other locations on your body where you can measure your heart rate: the neck, under the biceps or over the abdomen are just some locations where this is possible.
While easy to do, since you do not need any special tools to measure your heart rate besides a clock, it is not the most comfortable option, especially when you are in a noisy environment or one where it is difficult to concentrate.
To Measure your heart rate with an app Follow these Simple Steps:
Step 1: Download the Instant Heart Rate.
Instant Heart Rate is a free application for Android that measures your heart rate in a matter of seconds. It uses the camera of the device to do so.
Step 2: Install the application and run it.
Step 3: Click on Measure to start measuring. All you have to do is hold your finger against the camera lens for the measuring to start.
Step 4: It usually takes about fifteen seconds before the heart rate is displayed on the screen.
Step 5: The heart rate is shown on a graph that is divided into green, yellow and red parts, indicating good, average and problematic heart rates.
So How is this done and How accurate is the measuring?
According to the developers, it is tracking color changes on the fingertip. These color changes are directly linked to the pulse, and it is therefore possible to measure the heart rate using the camera.
Medical Pulse Oximeters, those little devices that you put your finger into to measure your heart rate use the very same technology to do so.
Step 6: You can also share it on social networking.
