Heart Rate Zone Calculator

Find your safe maximum and zones for effective training

❤️ What are heart rate zones

Heart rate zones are ranges of beats per minute relative to your maximum heart rate (MHR). They help match workout intensity to your goal: recovery, fat burn, endurance, or speed.

The calculator estimates MHR with “220 − age” and shows five training zones.

📐 Zones and formula

MHR = 220 − Age
  • 50–60% — warm-up, recovery
  • 60–70% — fat burn
  • 70–80% — aerobic endurance
  • 80–90% — anaerobic effort
  • 90–100% — maximum intensity

💡 Example

Age 30 → MHR = 220 − 30 = 190 bpm.

Fat-burn zone (60–70%): 114–133 bpm.

✅ Tips

  • For weight loss, the 60–70% zone on longer sessions is often used.
  • “220 − age” is approximate — your personal MHR may differ.
  • If you have heart issues or are returning after a long break, consult a doctor.
