Target Heart Rate (THR)

Is computed based on
the maximal heart rate
(MHR) and the resting
heart rate (RHR).
Maximal Heart Rate (MHR)

Highest number of heart


beat per minute
observed during a very
strenuous and
exhaustive physical
activity.
Resting Heart Rate (RHR)

The number of heart


beat per minute
commonly measured
lying down or right after
waking up.
Heart Rate Reserve (HRR)

It is the difference
between a person’s
measured or predicted
maximum heart rate
and resting heart rate.
How to Calculate Maximal Heart Rate

MHR= 220-your Age


How to Calculate Resting Heart Rate

RHR= Day 1+Day 2+Day 3

How to Calculate Heart Rate Reserve

HRR= MHR- RHR


How to Calculate Target Heart Range

It depends on what workout/ exercise plan you


want

Light / Moderate (50-60% training HR)


Weight Control (60-70% training HR)
Aerobic (70-80% training HR)
Anaerobic (80-90% training HR)

Target Zones
How to Calculate Target Heart Rate

My Target zone is Moderate/Light

50%: HRR x .50 + RHR= THR


60%: HRR x .60 + RHR= THR
How to Calculate Target Heart Rate

My Target zone is Moderate/Light

50%: HRR x .50 + RHR= THR


60%: HRR x .60 + RHR= THR

50%: (124) .50 + 75= 137 bmp


60%: (124) .60 + 75= 149 bmp
