There are three training zones, as described below:

TRAINING zONE

MHR%

DESCRIPTION

Health Maintenance

65-78%

This is the lowest training intensity level. It

is good for beginners and those who want to

strengthen their cardiovascular systems.

Aerobic Exercise

65-85%

Increases strength and endurance. It works

within the body’s oxygen intake capability,

burns more calories and can be maintained

for a long period of time.

Anaerobic Exercise

78-90%

Generates speed and power. It works at or

above the body’s oxygen intake capability,

builds muscle, and cannot be maintained for

a long period of time.

The upper and lower heart rate limits are calculated by multiplying your MHR by the

percentages of the selected training zone.
For example:

A 40-year-old training for basic health maintenance:

• His Upper Heart Rate Limit [220 - 40(age)] × 78%
• His Lower Heart Rate Limit [220 - 40(age)] × 65%

IMPORTANT:
Always warm up before exercise and select the training zone that best suits your

physique. Exercise regularly, 20 to 30 minutes per session, three to four times a week

for a healthier cardiovascular system.

CAUTION:

Determining your individual training zone is a critical step in the process towards an

efficient and safe training program. Please consult your doctor or health professional to

help you determine exercise frequency and duration appropriate for your age, condition

and specific goals.
