Each of us should look into how to take care of our family in case of an emergency. We should talk about fire safety and set up a plan. Everyone should know where the number is for the poison control center. We should also have heart rate training so we know what to do if someone has a heart attack.

Lynn and I have taken CPR classes. I hope the information kicks in when and if I need it! It is good to take refresher classes. The following video is an important source of information about heart rate monitors.

Did you know there are 5 Great Reasons to Wear a Heart Rate Monitor?

1. A heart rate monitor is a great tool to watch your heart rate when you exercise. I know that I need an incentive to push a bit harder and get my heart rate up. A heart rate monitor can help you find the right pace and intensity of exercise to achieve your goals.
2. Wearing a heart rate monitor helps you reach your goal when trying to lose weight.
3. Wearing a heart rate monitor makes the most of your exercise time. Why waste time exercising if you aren’t pushing hard enough to make it work?
4. It makes sure you stay within the boundaries of your heart rate. You do not want to overdo it and get into trouble!
5. Having control over your heart rate with a monitor allows you to be your own coach. You can watch the monitor as well as a pro!

It is not cumbersome to wear a heart rate monitor. In fact, there are very nice looking clothes with the monitor built right into them. There are pretty exercise tank tops with it built in. There are also straps and heart rate monitor built into wristbands. They are very sheik and very easy to use!
