I was at the gym last night and I was using my usual treadmill, which has the two metalallic handholds that somehow measure your heart rate. So how exactly does this work? I know that if I remove one hand it doesn’t work so I figure it forms some kind of electric circuit. Can someone explain it in simple terms?
