I subscribed to Visible Plus and just got I got the heart rate monitor for the Visible app. This is designed to help with real time reminders about over-exertion and provides a way to track my overall exertion during the day. The app is still collecting enough data to be able to let me establish a “Pace Points” budget, but I have already had some interesting insights.
You know how all the pacing guides say that exertion can be physical, mental, or emotional? I hadn’t realized just how true that is.
While reclining in my chair and watching the sun rise, my heart rate was at a good resting level. Then while still reclining, I played Wordle this morning, and my heart rate increased to 88 bpm, well into the Exertion zone. Apparently, thinking hard really does require the brain to expend more energy and my heart rate increased to bring it the oxygen it needed.
Even thinking enough to type this elevates my heart rate a little to 80 bpm, which is just into my estimated exertion zone.
I am very curious as to how this will proceed, and I’ll follow up in a few days with my experiences. Is anyone else using the heart rate tracker with the Visible app?
