Determining Your Optimal Heart Rate Zone

There are ﬁve basic heart rate target zones. Simply select a zone

thatmatchesyourpercentofmaximum(%)heartratebasedonthe

ﬁtness goal you want to achieve during a particular exercise. Before

you can set your %, you ﬁrst need to determine your maximum

heart rate. You can use many methods to estimate your maximum

heart rate. The booklet “Heart Zones

Tools For Success” included in

yourPersonalHeartRateMonitorpackaging(U.S.customersonly)

provides excellent procedures and Timex recommends you use one

of these methodologies.

However, if you cannot use any of the procedures you might

consider using the government recommended age-based method.

Begin with the number 220 and then subtract your age. For

instance, a 35-year old would begin with 220 and subtract 35

(herage),whichgivesanestimatedmaximumheartrateof185.

Once you know your maximum heart rate, you can set the zones

described in the following table.

Zone % Goal Beneﬁt

1 50% to 60% Light exercise Maintain a healthy heart and

get ﬁt

2 60% to 70% Weight management Lose weight and burn fat

3 70% to 80% Aerobic base building Increase stamina and aerobic

4 80% to 90% Optimal conditioning Sustain excellent ﬁtness

condition

5 90% to 100% Eliteathletictraining Achieve superb athletic condition
