Max Heart Rate Calculator

Your maximum heart rate is the highest your heart can beat in all-out effort. Age formulas estimate it: Tanaka gives 208 − 0.7 × age; the classic 220 − age tends to run high. At age 35 that is roughly 184 and 185 bpm, but the real value varies by ±10–12 bpm, so test it to be sure.

Heart Rate Zone Calculator

Your heart-rate zones are percentages of your maximum heart rate: Zone 1 is 50–60%, Zone 2 60–70%, Zone 3 70–80%, Zone 4 80–90% and Zone 5 90–100%. At a max of 185 bpm, Zone 2, the key aerobic-base zone, runs about 111–130 bpm. Spend most easy training in Zones 1–2.
