HEART RATE PROGRAMS
Before we get started, a word about Heart Rate:
The old motto, “no pain, no gain”, is a myth that has been overpowered by the benefits of exercising
comfortably. A great deal of this success has been promoted by the use of heart rate monitors.
With the proper use of a heart rate monitor, many people find that their usual choice of exercise
intensity was either too high or too low and exercise is much more enjoyable by maintaining their
heart rate in the desired benefit range.
To determine the benefit range in which you wish to train, you must first determine your Maximum
Heart Rate. This can be accomplished by using the following formula: 220 minus your age. This will
give you the Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) for someone of your age. To determine the effective heart
rate range for specific goals you simply calculate a percentage your MHR. Your Heart rate training
zone is 50% to 90% of your maximum heart rate. 60% of your MHR is the zone that burns fat while
80% is for strengthening the cardio vascular system. This 60% to 80% is the zone to stay in for
maximum benefit.
For someone who is 40 years old their target heart rate zone is calculated:
220 - 40 = 180 (maximum heart rate)
180 x .6 = 108 beats per minute (60% of maximum)
180 x .8 = 144 beats per minute (80% of maximum)
So for a 40 year old the training zone would be
108 to 144 beats per minute.
If you enter your age during programming the
console will perform this calculation automatically.
Entering your age is used for the Heart Rate
programs. After calculating your MHR you can decide
upon which goal you would like to pursue.
The two most popular reasons for, or goals, of
exercise are cardiovascular fitness (training for the heart and lungs) and weight control. The black
columns on the chart above represent the MHR for a person whose age is listed at the bottom of
each column. The training heart rate, for either cardiovascular fitness or weight loss, is represented
by two different lines that cut diagonally through the chart. A definition of the lines’ goal is in the
bottom left-hand corner of the chart. If your goal is cardiovascular fitness or if it is weight loss, it
can be achieved by training at 80% or 60%, respectively, of your MHR on a schedule approved by
your physician. Consult your physician before participating in any exercise program.
