CSET Subtest 3: PE (Heart Rate):

Heart Rate

20 minute aerobic activity at target heart rate (THR) THR = 220 - age * 70% to 85% (.70 -.85) Max Heart Rate (MHR) = 220 - age

Max Heart Rate (MHR)

220 - age

Lower Limit Threshold

70% of MHR

Target Heart Rate (THR)

70%-85% of MHR (lower and upper threshold)

Upper Limit Threshold

85% of MHR

To check heart rate...

count the beats for 10 seconds (use index finger) multiply number of beats by 6 to equal heart rate per minute.

Resting Heart Rate (RHR)

heart rate taken while standing still (average of 3 heart rates taken before getting up from bed in AM)
