HRmax (Fitness)HRmax= 200-your age in years
85%-90% HRmax maximal heart rate (HRmax or MHR)-Maximal number of times an individual's heart beats within one minute; HRmax is determined in part by age and genetics; also referred to as maximum heart rate. HRmax= 220- age in years Maximum heart rate (HRmax) A percentage of the maximum heart rate (HRmax), METs, or maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) can be used to prescribe exercise intensity. Aerobic training heart rate zones - Includes the three lowest heart rate training zones: Light Intensity zone (50-60 % HRmax), Light to Moderate Intensity zone (60-70% HRmax) and Moderate Intensity zone (70-85% HRmax). See also Target heart rate zone. A much more accurate formula, he says, is 208 minus age times 0.7 (HRmax = 208 - 0.7 x age). In a more recent study, Oakland University researchers also came up with a very similar formula (HRmax = 207 - 0.7 x age) [2]. MAXIMUM HEART RATE (HRmax ): The highest number of contractions your heart can make in one minute. The VO2max calculator that is based on resting heart rate is derived from Uth N, Sørensen H, Overgaard K, Pedersen PK. Estimation of VO2max from the ratio between HRmax and HRrest--the Heart Rate Ratio Method. Eur J Appl Physiol.
