It's imperative to know how aerobic exercise and heart rate relate in order to have control

Here is a quick guide to get you going with the relationship between aerobic exercise and heart rate. Knowing that you are exercising in your aerobic zone is an essential requisite for exercising if you want to reap all the benefits such exercise brings. It’s simple to calculate your target heart-rate, first subtract your age from 220. This first number you get is your recommended maximum heart rate. To get your aerobic heart rate, multiply this number by .75. As you can see this number represents the amount of beats per minute your heart should be performing when exercising. But it’s pretty hard to maintain your heart rate perfectly fixated in this number, that’s why it’s wiser to calculate a minimum and maximum aerobic heart rate so you know you’re in the ball park.


Take your maximum heart rate and multiply it by .65. This number represents the inferior limit of your aerobic heart rate. If you multiply your maximum heart rate by .85 then you get your maximum aerobic heart rate. While exercising you would need to check your heart rate and make sure you’re beats per minute falls between these limits. Speed up or slow down your exercise depending on your heart rate so you remain in the fat-burning aerobically enhancing zone. To do this, get a heart rate monitor or do it manually. A heart rate monitor is recommended because the manual method can throw some weird results sometimes. All in all, if your exercising machine doesn't include a heart rate monitor it's a smart move to go on ahead and get one.
