training based on exercise intensity (indicated by heart rate).
Energy Zone
Intensity Range Purpose
Recovery 50% to 65% of MHR Relaxation and energy accumulation.
Endurance 65% to 75% of MHR Raises metabolism, burns fat, increases energy.
Strength 75% to 85% of MHR Improves muscular endurance and mental stamina.
Interval 65% to 92% of MHR Trains the heart to recover quickly from work effort.
