For a regular heat beat you would find a good place to take you pulse, probably your neck or wrist using your 'middle finger and ring finger' because your index finger has a pulse. You would hold your fingers on that spot for either 1 min or 15 seconds x 4, or 30 seconds x 2. Meanwhile count how many beats you feel within that time and make sure to STOP counting once time is up.
