Target Heart rate zone
HR Max= 196 bpm Calculate 65% and 80% of HR Max for Target Zone: 65% of HR Max = .65 x 195 = 127 bpm 80% of HR Max = .80 x 195 = 156 bpm Target HR Zone 127 - 156 bpm

Basic Cardiorespiratory Physiology
Heart pumps oxygenated blood through circulatory system to all organs and tissues in body • Oxygen uptake (VO2): Amount of oxygen consumed by the body • Capacity of body to deliver and utilize oxygen • Higher capacity = greater efficiency • Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max): Maximum amount of oxygen the body is able to use per minute of physical activity, expressed in L/min or mL/kg/min
Calorie Calculation - example

Maximal Heart rate for target zone
max HR = 208 - (.7 x age) Example for a 40-y-old: Max HR = 208 - (.7 x 40) = 208 - 28 = 180.0 = 180 beats per minute (bpm) Calculate 65% and 80% of HR Max for Target Zone: 65% of HR Max = .65 x 180 = 117 bpm 80% of HR Max = .80 x 180 = 144 bpm
Maximal heart rate calculation
max HR= 208 -(.7 x age) example: 22 yr old Max HR=208-(.7x22) = 208-15.4 =192.6 =193 beats per min
