     "How to Calculate your Target Heart Rate"

     Your target heart rate is calculated by first subtracting your age from 220;  for example, if you are 30, your your maximum heart rate would be 190.  Then take 75 percent of that figure, or 142.5.  The goal is to train at a percentage of your maximum heart rate.  In this particular example you should keep somewhere around 143 beats per minute.  

     Calculate your target pulse range according to the percentage in your program (example 60% low intensity, 70-75% moderate intensity level).  You should increase or decrease exercise intensity to keep your pulse in its target range.

60% of your max heart rate is on the lower intensity scale
70% of your max heart rate is middle of the road intensity.  Staying at this range for 20-40 minutes can be ideal for fat burning.
85% of your max heart rate is on the higher level of intensity.
