PHYSICAL INDICATORS The American Heart Association Moderate exercise intensity generally recommends a target heart rate of: Moderate activity feels somewhat hard. Moderate exercise intensity: 50% to Here are clues that your exercise about 70% of your maximum heart rate intensity is at a moderate level: Vigorous exercise intensity: 70% to -Your breathing quickens, but you're about 85% of your maximum heart rate not out of breath. -You develop a light sweat after about 10 minutes of activity. HOW WILL YOU CALCULATE YOUR -You can carry on a conversation, but TARGET you can't sing. AEROBIC EXERCISE? HEART RATE DURING *You can calculate your maximum heart Vigorous exercise intensity rate by subtracting your age from 220. Vigorous activity feels challenging. Here For example, if you're 45 years old, are clues that your exercise intensity is subtract 45 from 220 to get a maximum at a vigorous level: heart rate of 175. This is the average -Your breathing is deep and rapid. maximum number of times your heart -You develop a sweat after only a few should beat per minute during exercise. minutes of activity. -You can't say more than a few words without pausing for breath. Heart Rate Reserve is located on the thumb side of your 1. 220- age = Maximum Heart Rate wrist. 2. Subtract resting heart rate from Max HR=Heart Rate Reserve (HRR) Step 3: Multiply this number by 4 to 3. Multiply HRR times percent you want calculate your beats per minute. to train at. 4. Add back resting heart rate. Here's an example: You stop exercising and take your pulse for 15 seconds, Assuming a resting heart rate of 70 getting 37 beats. Multiply 37 by 4, to bpm, 27 years old and 70% training reach 148. If you're 45 years old, this range: puts you in the target heart rate zone for vigorous exercise, since the target 220-27=193 zone for that age is between 146.5 and 193-70=123 160.75 beats per minute using the HRR 123x70%=86 method. If you're under or over your 86 + 70= 156 target heart rate zone, adjust your 220-15=179 exercise intensity. 179-78=101 101x70%=70.7 RATING OF PERCEIVED EXERTION 70.7 + 78=148.7 (RPE) CHECK YOUR HEART RATE DURING -is a tool for measuring an individual’s EXERCISE: effort and exertion, breathlessness and fatigue during physical work and so is Step 1:Stop briefly. highly relevant for occupational health Step 2: Take your pulse for 15 seconds. and safety practice.

The acronym FITT outline the key components, or training guidelines, for an effective exercise program and the initials F.I.T.T stands for: Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type. Frequency-Refers to the number of times per week you engage in physical activity or exercise. Intensity-The difficulty or exertion level of your physical activity or exercise. Time-The duration of a single workout, usually measured in minutes or hours. Type-The particular type of physical activity or exercise you choose to do. Workout Plan Components A repetition, or rep, is the most basic component of a resistance-training program. Skeletal muscles work together to produce two complementary, opposing, actions: contraction and extension. Stages of Personal Fitness Progress 1. Initial Stage 2. Improvement Stage 3.
