Question

Imagine you are in my face-to-face classroom and, as I have done in the past with previous classes, I ask the class to take their resting heart rate in beats per minute. I then ask the students to stand up and sit back down after which they remeasure their heart rate. Finally, I ask the students to walk up two flights of stairs after which they are to remeasure their heart rate. Thus, everyone provides a resting heart rate, “standing” heart rate, and a “stepping” heart rate. We as a class then proceed to determine whether the type of activity will significantly raise heart rate. Which statistical test should we use
