What's more, Activity 1: Using the HR method, determine your aerobic exercise target heart rate zone: work within the range of 60%-95%, e.g. 60% and 70%.

Step 1
First, you need to calculate your maximum heart rate. The most common way to do this is to subtract your age from 220. For example, if you are 30 years old, your maximum heart rate would be 190 beats per minute (bpm). Show more…

Activity 2: My Heart Rate Compute your target heart rate using the two methods. Use the formula below to estimate the Target Heart Rate and record the upper limit and the lower limit for each exercise intensity. Target Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) Method: 1. Estimated Maximal Heart Rate: 220 - Age = MHR 2. Range for moderate intensity Exercise: - 55% x MHR = Lower Limit - 70% x MHR = Upper Limit 3. Range for vigorous Intensity Exercise: - 70% x MHR = Lower Limit - 85% x MHR = Upper Limit Intensity Lower Limit Upper Limit Moderate ______ _________ Vigorous ______ _________ Target Heart Rate Reserve (HRR) Method: 1. Estimated Heart Rate Reserve: MHR - RHR = HRR 2. Range for moderate intensity Exercise: - 50% x HRR + RHR = Lower Limit - 65% x HRR + RHR = Upper Limit 3. Range for vigorous Intensity Exercise: - 65% x HRR + RHR = Lower Limit - 80% x HRR + RHR = Upper Limit Intensity Lower Limit Upper Limit Moderate _______ ________ Vigorous _______ _________

It's time to compute your own Training Intensity (TI). Age: __________ RHR: __________ MHR = 207- (0.7 x ____old) = HRR = ____ bpm - ____ bpm = Percentage | Training Intensity (TI) | Cardio-Respiratory Training Zone 30% | | Light Intensity 40% | | 50% | | Moderate Intensity 60% | | 70% | | Vigorous intensity 85% | | (Note: please have a copy of your computed training intensity (TI) as your reference for your next activity.)
