TARGET HEART RATE ZONE
Your 'Target Heart Rate Zone' is a percentage
of your maximum
heart rate. Target Zones will vary for
each individual,
depending
on age, current level of conditioning,
and personal fitness goals. The
American
Heart Association
recommends
working-out
at a 'Target Heart Rate Zone' of between 60%
and 75% of your maximum
heart rate. See the chart below for convenient
reference.
EXAMPLE for a
42-year old user: find AGE along the bottom of the chart (round to 40), follow AGE column
up to the
TARGET ZONE BAR. RESULTS: 60% of maximum
Hear Rate = 108 Beats Per Minute, 75% of maxi-
mum Heart Rate = 135 Beat Per Minute.
