it can be roughly estimated using the traditional formula 220 minus your age (see thistable of heart rate max). Also, an average value of 70 bpm can be used for resting heart rate if it is not known. See alsoResting Heart Rate
The Karvonen formula, which is widely used to estimate exercise intensity, contains maximum heart rate, H Rmax, as a variable. This study employed pedaling experiments to assess which of the proposed formulas for calculating H Rmaxwas the most suitable for use with the Karvonen formula. First,...
Maximum heart rate (MHR) is commonly used to estimate exercise intensity with the Karvonen formula, and there are several methods of calculating it. In this study, we used pedaling experiments on a cycle ergometer to evaluate methods of determining MHR in order to select the ones most suitable...
NEW 2.0 VERSIONThe Karvonen Formula is a method of calculating your optimal heart rate range to train either at a fat loss method or cardiovascular method. This range is from 55% to 85% based on your age and resting heart rate.As you exercise more, your heart is able to efficiently pump...
