How hard it is
Aaron is 43. Calculate his max heart rate.
220-43 = 177
200-43 = 157
230 - 43 = 187
220-53 = 167
Aerobic Training Zone =
60% - 85% of Max Heart Rate
50% - 75% of Max Heart Rate
60% - 80% of Max Heart Rate
85% - 95% of Max Heart Rate
Anaerobic Training Zone =
85% - 95% of Max Heart Rate
60% - 85% of Max Heart Rate
80% - 90% of Max Heart Rate
75% - 85% of Max Heart Rate
