Heart Rate Training Zone
To achieve the maximum health benefits from your
workout, it is important to know your heart rate
training zone. Your training zone is your maximum
upper and lower heart rate (beats per minute) during
exercise. Calculate your upper and lower heart rate
limit using this formula:
Men: 220 – age = MHR
Women: 230 – age = MHR
Multiply your MHR by the percentages of the selected
training zone. There are three training zones that are
related to your MHR:
• Health Maintenance Zone (70% – 60%) — The
lowest training intensity. For beginners and those
who want to strengthen their cardiovascular
system.
• Aerobic Exercise Zone (80% – 70%) —
Increases strength and endurance. It works
within the body’s oxygen intake capability, burns
more calories, and can be maintained over a
longer period of time.
• Anaerobic Exercise Zone (90% – 80%) —
Generates speed and power. It works at or above
the body’s oxygen intake capability and builds
more muscle, but cannot be maintained over a
long period of time.
For example, a 30-year old female who wants to
determine her aerobic exercise zone would calculate
it as follows:
230 – 30 = 200 (MHR)
200 x .80 = 160 (Upper limit)
200 x .60 = 120 (Lower limit)
