Deep dives
Understanding RPE as Rate of Perceived Exertion
RPE, or Rate of Perceived Exertion, is a subjective metric quantified on a 0 to 10 scale that reflects the level of effort put into an activity. It goes beyond objective metrics and allows individuals to gauge how hard they are working, whether in physical exercise or daily life. By understanding RPE, individuals can prevent burnout, ensure they are working enough to reach their goals, and adapt their efforts based on internal feedback that factors in various external influences like stress, fatigue, and environmental conditions.
