Knowing your target heart rate is vital when exercising so that you know that you are working out at the right intensity and getting the best results that you can.
Maximum heart rate MHR, is the highest number of times your heart can contract in one minute. The average adult heart beats about 60 to 100 times a minute at rest. The resting heart rate usually increases with age, and is generally lower in physically fit people.
Maximum heart rate is used to determine your training target heart rate. There are many calculations that can be used to determine this but luckily there is also a cool tool that does all this for you and then gives you a range that you should work out in. This is great because it ensures that you are not working out too hard, but also, just as important it ensures that you are not cheating yourself and are not working hard enough!
