ASSESSMENT/HANDS ON ACTIVITIES
ACTIVITY 6
A. MY TARGET
Directions: In your notebook, compute your threshold of training and target zones. Follow the
steps below.
1. Estimate your maximal heart rate (max HR/MHR) according to the following formula:
MaxHR/MHR = 207 – (0.7 x age)
Solution: MaxHR/MHR = 207-(0.7 x 22)
= 207- 15.4
MaxHR/MHR = 191.6
2. Check your resting heart rate (RHR) sitting quietly for 15 to 20 minutes. You may take your
pulse for 30 seconds and multiply by 2, or take it for a full minute.
RHR – 1 Minute
69 beats per Minute
3. Determine heart rate reserve (HRR) using this formula: HRR = MHR – RHR.
HRR = MHR – RHR
= 191.6 – 69 beats
HRR = 125.6
4. Calculate the training intensity at 30, 40, 60 and 85 percent. Multiply HRR by the respective
0.30, 0.40, 0.60 and 0.85, and then add the HRR to all four training intensities. Example: 60%
Training Intensity = HRR x 0.60 + RHR.
Solution:
30% Intensity Training = HRR x 0.30 + RHR
= 125.6 x 0.30 + 69
30% = 106.68
40% Intensity Training = HRR x 0.40 + RHR
= 125.6 x 0.40 + 69
40% = 119.24
60% Intensity Training = HRR x 0.60 + RHR
= 125.6 x 0.60 + 69
60% = 144.36
85% Intensity Training = HRR x 0.85 + RHR
= 125.6 x 0.85 + 69
85% = 175.76
