Estimating Heart Rate
Estimated max HR = 220bpm minus your age (220 – age)
Target/Working Heart Rate
Target HR = rest HR + 60% (max HR – rest HR)
Example – Name: Harry Age: 14 years old Max HR: 220bpm – 14 = 206bpm Rest HR = rest HR + 60% (max HR – rest HR) Rest HR = 56bpm + 60% (206-56bpm) Rest HR = 56bpm + (0.60 x 150bpm) Rest HR = 56bpm + 90bpm Rest HR = 146bpm
