Heart Rate (HR)
Your Heart rate is a measure of how many times your heart beats per minute (bpm).
Why Does Heart Rate Matter?
Heart rate reflects the activity of your Sympathetic nervous system (SNS), which plays a key role in how your body responds to stress and physical activity.
When you experience emotional stress or engage in exercise, the SNS releases hormones like adrenaline. This signals your heart to beat faster, helping your body meet extra demands by increasing blood and oxygen flow to your muscles and organs.
By tracking your heart rate, you can see how your body adapts to different situations, giving you a clearer picture of your physical and emotional well-being.
