Measure your own resting heart rate.  Place your pointer and middle fingers on the inside of your opposite wrist just below the thumb.
  1. Don’t use your thumb to check your pulse, as the artery in your thumb can make it harder to count accurately.
  2. Once you can feel your pulse, count how many beats you feel in 15 seconds.
  3. Multiply this number by 4 to get your heart rate. For instance, 20 beats in 15 seconds equals a heart rate of 80 beats per minute (bpm).
Next, time yourself running in place or jumping for 1 minute.  Now measure and compare your active heart rate to your resting rate.
