Before beginning any test, calculate your maximum heart rate. The maximum number of

heartbeats that a person must not exceed is referred to as the maximum heart rate and this value

drops with age. A simple formula to calculate this is to subtract your age, in years, from the

number 220. To ensure that you are exercising correctly, try to keep between 65% and 85% of

your maximum heart rate value.

For example, the maximum heart rate that a 30 year old user must not exceed is:

220 – 30 = 190 heart beats per minute (BPM).

190 x 0.65 = 123 heart beats per minute.

190 x 0.85 = 161 heart beats per minute. Do not exceed 85%.

So the heart rate exercise range for a 30 year old is between 123 and 161 BPM.

Stop exercising if your pulse is 85% of your maximum heart rate.
