3.1 USEFUL FACTS ABOUT HEART RATE FREQUENCY

The heart rate frequency (HR) or pulse is recorded in beats per minute.
Maximum Heart Rate Frequency
The maximum heart rate (maxHR) is the highest frequency possible,
achieved at total exhaustion during physical performance. Some factors
that can influence maxHR are age, weight, sex, and fitness level.
The best way to determine your maxHR is a stress test.
We recommend that you have your doctor carry out this test for you at
regular intervals.
The maxHR can also be estimated with the aid of a mathematical formula:
Men:
210 – "half age" – (0.11 x personal weight in kg) + 4
Women:
210 – "half age" – (0.11 x personal weight in kg)
The correct training heart rate
The training zone is the range in which the heart rate frequency should
fluctuate during effective and targeted training. Three training zones can
be classified from a sports medicine perspective:
Please be aware that these are general guidelines. Target zones will vary
from person to person. Individualized training/personal goal setting is only
possible through a well qualified trainer who knows the individual.
