A study reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association investigated the cardiac demands of heavy snow shoveling. Ten healthy men underwent exercise testing with a treadmill and a cycle ergometer modified for arm cranking. The men then cleared two tracts of heavy, wet snow by using a lightweight plastic snow shovel and an electric snow thrower. Each subject's heart rate during snow removal were compared with the values obtained during treadmill and arm-crank ergometer testing. Dataset: HeartRate
