Heart Rate Intensity Chart
This is another way to gauge your approximate heart rate zones based on sex, age and weight. Starting with your
Max Heart Rate, use the chart to help calculate your zones depending on the intensity of your workout.
Note this formula may not work for everyone.

Low Intensity (50-65% of Max HR)
Exercise in this zone after an
injury, or during a recovery
session. Stay in this zone when
beginning an exercise program.
Medium Intensity (65-80% of Max HR)
Exercise in this zone to increase
cardiovascular health, improve
endurance, or lose weight.
High Intensity (80-100% of Max HR)
Exercise in this zone to increase
peak performance and acclimate
your body to competition-level
activity. Stay in this level to increase
lactic-acid tolerance.
