For this project our
class completed a large variety of different activities. Some activities were
very simple and did not require much movement or activity, while others
required a lot of energy and movement. After most of the activities I felt relatively
normal, while during a few of activities that required a bit more participation
than normal I would begin to feel warmed up or even sweaty or tired. I think
that the heart rate readings are accurate but the steps are not. On the
activities that I felt normal after, my heart rates are consistent and on the
lower side. The activities that I was more active in, my heart rates were
higher. This relationship is what I would expect. The steps were much more sporadic,
and I believe it was due to our technology. My first activity which was track
and field warm ups, and I only counted 30 steps. On the last day, I got nearly
800 steps in both activities. Both of these days I was wearing different pedometers
and in different places. The technology used to keep measure of our steps was
just too inconsistent and unreliable for me to consider it accurate.
