Getting to know the three Target Zones (TZ)

In order to benefit the most from your workout, you need to become familiar with your Heart Rate Target Zone. For most people, as your heart rate exceeds the upper limit, your body begins to become anaerobic and produce acids. By working within the correct range, you will achieve your fitness goals and strengthen your cardiovascular system in less time.

Zone 1 (Fat Burning Zone, 55-65%) -This range is recommended for those who haven't worked out in a long time, are trying to lose weight, are at a high risk for heart problems or if you're just not feeling 100% one day.

Zone 2 (The Aerobic Zone, 65%-85%) - This range is recommended for those in good physical condition who have been exercising on a consistent basis for an extended period of time. Exercising at this range helps improve your fitness level and prevent injury caused from overtraining.

Zone 3 (The Anaerobic Zone, 85% - 95%) This range is used only for those in extremely good physical condition during races or training for competition. It is typically used for interval training to help improve or measure endurance levels.
