"I want you to try the talk test. Can you talk, or are you breathing too heavily? You should be able to carry on a simple conversation right now." *"I know this is hard, but I want you to keep pushing! Let's work through this next interval, and then we will check your heart rate." *"Let's do a quick sweat-check! Are you sweating? If you are not sweating, you are not working hard enough." *"One way to monitor your intensity is to check your thirst. Are you thirsty? If you are thirsty, your body is becoming dehydrated, and it's time to reduce your intensity." - ANS "I want you to try the talk test. Can you talk, or are you breathing too heavily?
