220 – age = Maximum Heart Rate (MHR)

60% = MHR x .6

80% = MHR x .8

Example: Lori is 13 years old. What would her MHR, 60%, and 80% target heart rate training zones be?

220 – 13 = 207 (MHR)

207 x .6 = 124 beats per minute (BPM) at 60%

207 x .8 = 166 beats per minute (BPM) at 80 %

Lori should try to keep her heart rate between 124 (60%) and 166 (80%) beats per minute when exercising.

REMEMBER – When multiplying a percentage number it ALWAYS becomes a decimal!
