Physical Education Students Experience High Tech Heart Rate Monitoring

Limestone College Physical Education student-teachers are taking heart rate monitoring to the next level using Firstbeat School pack in PE sessions. In the article published in Limestone College news Dr. Cindy Cavanaugh, Associate Professor of Physical Education at Limestone, says "With Firstbeat, physical education teachers have a powerful tool that can help them more easily motivate their students by increasing awareness of fitness and health. In the realm of physical education, there historically have not been many ways to generate truly measurable data, but a system like Firstbeat changes all of that. With it, we can clearly show the student the importance of getting the heart rate to go up for a certain amount of time and how that affects their overall health."
