Your maximum heart rate can be established with a high 
degree of accuracy using the following simple formula: 

Estimated Maximum Heart Rate = 220 minus your age.

If John is 35 years old, what is his estimated maximum heart 
rate?

John’s estimated maximum heart rate is: 220 - 35 = 185

185 beats per minute is the estimated maximum number of 
times John’s heart can beat before his body would fatigue or 
“max out.” This number is extremely helpful because it 
indicates the absolute highest exercise intensity John can 
handle before his body wears out. The ACSM says that during 
exercise, John should keep his heart rate below his maximum 
so that he will not become exhausted and have to quit. In fact, 
the ACSM gives John a specific percentage range of his 
maximum heart rate to exercise in, known as his Target Heart 
Rate Zone.(THRZ).

1.2.3. Why should I monitor exercise intensity?

Your heart is the most important muscle in your body and, like 
all muscles, must be exercised regularly to remain strong and 
efficient. According to fitness experts, exercise is more effective 
when you work out in a specific heart rate range or zone. This 
is referred to as your Target Heart Rate Zone (THRZ) and is 
reflected by the number of heart beats per minute. This zone 
can vary greatly depending on your age, fitness level and 
various other factors. If your heart rate is too low during 
exercise, your body reaps little or no benefit. This means you’re 
not likely to see the results you want, like weight loss or 
increased endurance. If your heart rate is too high during 
exercise, you may tire too quickly, become fatigued or even run 
the risk of injury.

Monitoring exercise intensity helps you to stay at a level of 
exercise that allows you to accomplish your goals. In fact, the 
ACSM recommends that, in order to get the most benefit from 
your cardiovascular exercise, you should work within your 
THRZ for at least 20 to 60 minutes per workout, 3 to 5 times per 
week. Knowing your exercise intensity (THRZ) will allow you to 
work at the right level of exercise to accomplish this.
