Another method that can be used in conjunction with taking your pulse is the Ratings of Perceived Exertion (RPE). This is a subjective method that allows you to rate how hard you feel you're working.
*RPE= rate of perceived exertion. RPE is a measure of your exercise intensity based on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the most effort. Adjust speed and incline to reach desired RPE above.

You will monitor the intensity of intervals using a rate of perceived exertion (RPE).
Although target heart rate is a very good way to monitor intensity, I prefer Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE). RPE is a method that requires you to pay close attention to your body and what's happening to it - and that's an approach I've always liked.

You can also use ratings of perceived exertion to determine the intensity of your workout, with a 5 being a low intensity workout and a 10 being a really high intensity workout.
