The scale allows individuals to subjectively rate their level of exertion during exercise or exercise Developed by Gunnar Borg, it is often also referred Two RPE scales are commonly used: 2. the revised category-ratio scale (0 to 10 scale).The original scale was developed in healthy individuals to correlate with exercise heart rates (e.g., RPE 15 would approximate a HR of 150 bpm), and (Borg, 1982).
