What is Target Heart Rate Zone?
Target Heart Rate Zone tells you
the number of times per minute
your heart needs to beat to achieve
a desired workout effect. It is
represented as a percentage of the
maximum number of times your
heart can beat per minute. Target
Zone will vary for each individual,
depending on age, current level
of conditioning, and personal
fitness goals. The American Heart
Association recommends working-
out at a Target Heart Rate Zone
of between 60% and 75% of your
maximum heart rate. A beginner
will want to workout in the 60%
range while a more experienced
exerciser will want to workout in
the 70-75% range. See chart for
reference.
ExAMPLE:
For a 42-year-old user: Find age along the bottom of the chart (round to 40), follow age column up to the
target zone bar. Results: 60% of maximum Hear Rate = 108 Beats Per Minute, 75% of maximum Heart
Rate = 135 Beat Per Minute.
ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN BEFORE BEGINNING AN ExERCISE PROGRAM.
