To calculate your target heart rate, simply multiply your maximum heart rate by the required
percentage. So, if your goal is better health, the calculations will look like this:
185 x 60% (0.60) = 111 bpm
NOTE: The important issue to remember with all estimated calculation is that they are just that
– estimates. If you don’t feel comfortable while exercising at our target heart rate level, then
reduce the resistance to a level you are comfortable with.
NOTE: Heart rate training requires you to monitor your heart rate throughout the workout. To
monitor your heart rate, it is recommended to use a chest strap or a heart rate monitor.
