45
For example, if someone aged 30 wants to burn off fat, the heart rate during
exercise should be kept to between 114 (60%) and 133 (70%); if he or she
wants to improve cardio-respiratory capacity, the heart rate should be kept to
between 133 (70%) and 171 (90%).
Danger
During a workout it is very important that your heart rate never goes
above 90% of your maximum rate (unless you are an athlete engaged
in competitive sport).
2.3 Monitoring the heart rate
Warning
The sole function of the heart rate
monitor is to display the heart
rate during exercise and cannot
be used for medical cardiac
diagnoses of any kind. The heart
rate shown on the display is
purely indicative and cannot be
considered absolutely certain.
