The American Heart Association (AHA) defines this tar- get as 60%-75% percent of your maximum heart rate. Your maximum heart rate may be roughly calculated by subtracting your age from 220.
Workout Information Frequency, Intensity, Time, Target Heart Rate Zone The exercise practices include four major variables: frequency, intensity, time, target heart rate zone. A continuous workout will help to improve your cardiovascular functions and increase the ability of your muscles to obtain the oxygen and nutrition. A good workout provides a greater advantage to extend the endurance of muscle and body flexibility.
