Why Calculate Your Target Heart Rate?

The Karvonen Formula: Your Heart’s BFF
Our calculator uses the Karvonen formula to calculate your Target Heart Rate. Sounds fancy, right? But it’s just a clever way to find the right THR range.
The formula considers your heart rate reserve (HRR) and maximum heart rate (HRmax). Your HRR is the difference between your maximum and resting heart rates (HRrest). HRmax can be calculated based on age or by an exercise test.
How It Works
The formula to find your Target HR range: THR = (HRR x desired training intensity) + HRrest.
And if you’re curious about your max THR, it’s THRmax = (desired training intensity) x HRmax. But don’t worry, our calculator does all the hard work for you!

Our calculator lets you customize your THR range by choosing your desired training intensity. Our calculator has you covered whether you’re aiming for a light workout or a more intense session.
Just plug in your resting heart rate and desired training intensity, and let the calculator do its magic.
Medications and Your Heart
Remember that some medications, like beta blockers, can affect your heart rate. So, if you’re on medication, your THR range might need to be revised. Talking to your healthcare provider before setting target heart rates for your workouts is always a good idea. Your health and safety come first!
