Target Heart Rate Chart

Heart Healthy Zone - This is a safe zone that can be reached by an easy walk. Best zone for beginners. This particular zone has been proven to decrease body fat, cholesterol and blood pressure.

Weight Management Zone - This zone provides the same benefits as the Heart Healthy Zone except that it is more intense and burns more calories. Can be reached by a fast walk or slow jog.

Aerobic Zone - This zone will improve your cardiovascular and respiratory system and will also increase the size and strength of your heart. Attained by a brisk jog.

Anaerobic Zone - A high intensity zone. Achieved by a “burning” run. In this zone, exercise intensity can be used to build your heart/ling capacity and endurance.

Red-Line Zone - This zone is a running at full speed. Use caution when exercising
at this level.

Never train at your Maximum heart rate (mhr). Training at too high a level can be harmful to your heart and could result in injuries.
