Heart Rate Training
To maximize your results from training it is essential to monitor the intensity of your workout through your heart rate.
It is imperative that you accurately determine the target pulse rate within which to train in order that you may improve your fitness at a
safe, comfortable and sustainable level.
The following table on the next page is a rough guide to determine the level at which you should be exercising based upon your
maximum heart rate (MHR).
Heart Rate diagram
You can calculate the target-heartrate for your training as follows:
Maximum heartrate = 220 minus age
For the different trainingtargets you should train with the following percentage of your maximum heartrate:
Health/Fat Burning:
50
– 70% of your max. heartrate
Fitness/Bodyshaping:
70
– 80% of your max. heartrate
Performance:
80 - 90% of your max. heartrate
Example:
You are 25 years old and want to train for the target Fitness:
220
– 25 = 195
70% of 195 = 136,5
80% of 195 = 156
Your target-heartrate should be between 136,5 and 156 beats per minute.
