Maths exercise

Today for Maths the hexagons group did an activity about heart beats. We had to find out our maximum heart rate by taking our age away from 220. We then found our resting heart rate. It took some of us a while to even find our pulse. Joshua thought he must be dead, but Konor was fantastic at quickly finding his pulse and others. We thought of exercises that would quickly get our heart rate up to 75% of our maximum heart rate. We calculated what 75% of our maximum rate would be and then tried different exercises like step ups, skier jumps and skipping on the spot. Most of the group got close to reaching their target heart rate. We realised a minute was a long time when pushing yourself with these exercises.
