2. Training for competition

Measure your resting heart rate just after waking in the morning and your maximum heart rate (perhaps
during competition). Then set your target zone according to your goal:

A) For recovery, endurance training, and weight loss :

60% - 70% (aerobic exercise)

B) For quality endurance and tempo training :

70% - 80% (aerobic exercise)

C) For increasing TT and race ability, and VO2 max :

85% + (anaerobic exercise)

D) For anaerobic capacity and sprinting :

92.5% + (anaerobic exercise)

Training level (%) =

x 100

Target heart rate = (Maximum heart rate - Resting heart rate) x

+ Resting heart rate

Resting heart rate

Your resting heart rate is usually the lowest recorded rate soon after waking up in the morning.

Maximum heart rate

The following calculations are generally used: (220 - age) or (204 - 0.69 x age).
For more precise figure, consult a training specialist.

(Target heart rate) - (Resting heart rate)

(Maximum heart rate) - (Resting heart rate)
