To help achieve maximum health benefits from your workout program, it is important

to know your:

• Maximum heart rate (MHR)

• Upper heart rate limit

• Lower heart rate limit
MHR is expressed in beats per minute. You can get your MHR from an MHR test, or

you can estimate it by using the following formula:

220 - age = MHR

TRAINING zONES
There are several training zones that are relevant to a fitness program. The most

popular zone range is from 50% to 80% of your maximum heart rate. This is where you

achieve cardiovascular benefits, burn fat, and become fitter. When programming your

watch, the lower percentage of the zone you choose becomes your lower heart rate

limit and the higher percentage becomes the upper heart rate limit.
