 Q:
How do you estimate your
maximum heart rate?


A: Subtract your age from 220
After you find your max HR, calculate your
target HR zone by calculating 60 percent and
85 percent of your maximum.

EXAMPLE: For a 15 year old: 220-15=205
To estimate “target heart rate zone”
Max HR x 60%
205 x 0.60 = 123
◦ Low end of the target HR zone
Max HR x 85%
205 x 0.85 = 175
◦ High end of the target HR zone

123-175 Beats/Minute=Target HR Zone

 Use your index, second, and third fingers on the palm side of your
wrist, below the base of the thumb Or on your lower neck, on the side
of your windpipe.
 Press lightly until you feel the blood pulsing beneath your fingers.
 Count the beats you feel for 6 seconds. Multiply this number by 10 to
get your heart rate (pulse) per minute.
 Check your pulse: _______________ x 10 = ________________
(beats in 6 seconds)

include a specific
type of exercise to
gain the desired
fitness benefit
5-10 minutes of easy
exercise to warm and
stretch muscles &
increase blood flow
TRAINING
Overload

include exercise
beyond what is
usually done to gain
additional fitness
benefits
PRINCIPLES
Fitness Reversibility
Progression
Fitness Benefits are
lost when training
stops
Amount and intensity
of exercise in a
workout must be
increased gradually
Cool-Down
