How it works
Enter the requested values, check the units, then run the Target Heart Rate Calculator for a copyable informational estimate.
The tool works by applying selected percentages to the age-predicted maximum heart rate. The result is a general estimate that cannot account for every individual factor and does not replace a clinician. Inputs stay in the browser.
Examples
Practical example
For age 40, 50% to 85% gives a general range around 90 to 153 bpm.
Method and source
Uses the American Heart Association general guide: estimated maximum heart rate is about 220 minus age; exercise ranges are averages.
