RPE scale

The RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) scale is a way to measure how hard you feel your body is working during activity. It typically ranges from 0 to 10, where 0 means no effort at all (like sitting), and 10 indicates maximum effort (like sprinting at full speed). It helps you gauge exercise intensity based on your personal perception of effort, fatigue, and breathing. Using the RPE scale allows for individualized pacing, ensuring you work within your fitness level and avoid overexertion, making workouts both effective and safe.
