First you'll need to find your pulse. You can do this by placing a finger on your wrist just below the thumb joint, or by placing your hand over your heart. If you have just exercised, you can often ''hear'' your heart beat, and feel it as well. If you cannot, then you'll need to take your pulse the same way as when you are at rest. The only problem with determining your heart rate after exercise is that what you ''really'' want to do is determine what it was ''when'' you were exercising, and when you stop exercising, the heart slows. It takes a few seconds to find your pulse, and then at least 15 seconds to measure it, and in that time, the heart can slow significantly. Therefore, you should add 10% to whatever number you measure.
