Heart rate calculator

Special calculator that will help calculate your personal target zones.

Karvonen Method
Method for determining the boundaries of heart rate. It is used to determine the optimal range (target zone) of the heart rate during sports.

The boundaries of the range are approximately between the value of the pulse in a calm state and in the state of MCHSS (maximum heart rate).

The target zone of heartbeats is in the range from 50% to 95% of the value of the heart rate and is selected depending on the individual differences in the physical condition of the person.

VO2 max characterizes the ability of the runner's body to absorb and absorb oxygen.

This indicator is fundamental in sports medicine. With its help, the athlete's abilities and prospects of his progress are evaluated.

VO2 max lets you know the limit of your possibilities.

Maximum heart rate
Maximum heart rate is an indicator achieved with maximum effort before the moment of extreme fatigue. This indicator remains constant and changes only slightly with age.

You can only work at the limit (90% -100% of the maximum heart rate and the amount of oxygen consumed), and only trained athletes can afford it. The better the physical fitness of a person, the longer he can hold out in this range.
