TARGET HEART RATE
Target Heart Rate is a percentage of your maximum heart rate. Target Heart Rate
will vary for each individual depending on age, current level of conditioning, and
personal fitness goals. Exercise heart rate should range from 55% to 85% of your
maximum heart rate. As a point of reference, we use the predicted maximum heart
rate formula of (220 minus age) to determine your heart rate training zone. Please
use the following chart to determine your predicted Target Heart Rate.
EXAMPLE:
If you are a 30-year-old, your predicted maximum heart rate is 190 based on the (220
minus age) formula.
220–30=190
Based on the chart above, your heart rate training zone is 104 to 161, which is
55%–85% of 190.
