Heart Rate Calculator

Determine the best target heart rate zone for your exercise regimen.

If you are in good health or a beginner or intermediate exerciser, burn fat between 60% and 70% of your maximum heart rate. If you are in good aerobic shape and can be considered an advanced exerciser, you can select a target heart rate zone between 70% and 85% of your maximum heart rate.

Note that these are theoretical numbers based on common research. Please consult your physician to determine if these numbers are best for you.
