How To Find Out Your Target Heart Reat Zone??

Age based formula

Your estimated maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. In order to get your target heart rate zones you need to do the following calculations:

Maximum heart rate * 0.6

Maximum heart rate * 0.7

Maximum heart rate * 0.8

Your heart rate zones are:

Zone 1: Heart rate between Maximum heart rate * 0.6 and Maximum heart rate * 0.7

Zone 2: Heart rate between Maximum heart rate * 0.7 and Maximum heart rate * 0.8

Zone 3: More than Maximum heart rate * 0.8

Example:

Jimmy is 30 years old and his estimated maximum heart rate is 220-30=190.

Maximum heart rate * 0.6 = 190 * 0.6 =114

Maximum heart rate * 0.7 = 190 * 0.7 =133

Maximum heart rate * 0.8 = 190 * 0.8 = 152

Jimmy’s heart rate zones:

Zone 1: 114 – 133

Zone 2: 133 – 152

Zone 3: more than 152
