TARGET HEART RATE ZONE
Your Target Heart Rate Zone is a percentage of your maximum
heart rate. Target Zone 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 42-year old user: find AGE along bottom of chart
(round to 40), follow AGE column up to TARGET ZONE bar.
RESULTS: 60% of maximum Heart Rate = 108 Beats per Minute,
75% of maximum Heart Rate = 135 Beats per Minute. With this
Target Zone of 108-135 Beats per Minute it is best to enter an
average Target Heart Rate of about 122 Beats per Minute into the
