The upper and lower heart rate limits are calculated by multiplying your MHR by the percentages of the selected training zone.

For example:

For a 40-year-old man to train for health maintenance,

His Upper Heart Rate Limit

(220 - 40) x 70% = 126

 

(beats per minute)

His Lower Heart Rate Limit

(220 - 40) x 60% = 108

 

(beats per minute)

For a 30-year-old woman to train for aerobic exercise,

Her Upper Heart Rate Limit

(230 - 30) x 80% = 160

 

(beats per minute)

Her Lower Heart Rate Limit

(230 - 30) x 70% = 140

 

(beats per minute)
