RPE stands for “Rating of Perceived Exertion”

The is a common spectrum, from 0-10, utilized to help gauge your effort levels based on your energy balance.

Your RPE should vary from day-to-day based on some common areas of consideration including:

• Rest & recovery levels
• Hydration & sleep performance
• Controlling external & internal stressors
• And much more

I love this example by Functional BodyBuilding explaining the “exertion talk test” to help determine your effort output, especially during exercise.
