Heart Rate Monitoring
Calculating your personal heart rate when training
Calculate your personal heart rate when training as follows:
220 - Age = maximum heart rate
This value represents your maximum heart rate and serves as a basis from which to calculate
your personal training heart rate. Set the calculated heart rate at 100%
Wellness and Health - target zones = 50 to 60% of the maximum heart rate.
This training zone is ideally suitable for people who are over-weight and/or older beginners, or people starting again after a longer
break from training. Training in this zone the body will burn approx. 4-6 calories per minute to produce energy.
The percentage ratio per calorie is approx. 70% fat, 25% carbohydrate, and 5% protein.
Fat burning - target zone = 60 to 70% of the maximum heart rate
This training zone is suitable for athletes and sports people who aim to lose weight.
Training in this zone the body will burn approx. 6-10 calories per minute to produce energy.
The percentage rate per calorie is approx. 85% fat,10% carbohydrate, and 5% protein.
Condition & Fitness - target zone = 70 to 80% of maximum heart rate
This training zone is ideally suitable for athletes and sports people who aim to improve their stamina and/or condition.
Training in this zone the body will burn approx. 10-12 calories per minute to produce energy.
The percentage rate per calorie is approx. 35% fat,60% carbohydrate, and 5% protein.
For optimum eects in training results you should calculate the average value othe selected target zone (also see above table):
Wellness & Health - target zone average value = 55% of maximum heart rate
Fat burning - target zone average value = 65% of maximum heart rate
Kondition & Fitness - target zone average value = 75% of maximum heart rate
