Before we even get into this, you should speak to your obstetrics/gynecologist first to let them know that you are going to start exercising, or that you are continuing to exercise while you are pregnant. The first trimester for every baby is extremely important, and this is the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Make sure when you are exercising that your heart rate does not go above 140 beats per minute and make sure that you do not get to hot while exercising.

Why Is Keeping Track Of Your Heart Rate So Important?

I personally can’t understand why people dont keep track of their own heart rate. Do they know its very important and so I had to find out why not? I did a short survey for myself and walked up and ask 10 people off the street do they keep track of their heart rate? Atleast 8 out of 10 people responded with the answer no. I also asked them why not and some responses were “I really don’t know”; “Just dont think about it”; “I do when I have a doctor’s appointment”. One guy told me, “I didn’t know I had one”, but he was joking and I told him, “I already know the answer to that question”. The true fact is people just don’t worry about their heart rate.
