What should your heart rate be when working out, and how can you keep track of it? Our simple chart will help keep you in the target training zone, whether you want to lose weight or just maximize your workout. Find out what normal resting and maximum heart rates are for your age and how exercise intensity and other factors affect heart rate.

How do I get my heart rate in the target zone?

When you work out, are you doing too much or not enough? There’s a simple way to know: Your target heart rate helps you hit the bullseye so you can get max benefit from every step, swing and squat. Even if you’re not a gym rat or elite athlete, knowing your heart rate (or pulse) can help you track your health and fitness level.

What is a resting heart rate?

Your resting heart rate is the number of times your heart beats per minute when you’re at rest. A good time to check it is in the morning after you’ve had a good night’s sleep, before you get out of bed or grab that first cup of java!

Is resting heart rate different by age?

For most of us (adults), between 60 and 100 beats per minute (bpm) is normal.1 The rate can be affected by factors like stress, anxiety, hormones, medication, and how physically active you are. An athlete or more active person may have a resting heart rate as low as 40 beats per minute. Now that’s chill! When it comes to resting heart rate, lower is better. It usually means your heart muscle is in better condition and doesn’t have to work as hard to maintain a steady beat. Studies have found that a higher resting heart rate is linked with lower physical fitness and higher blood pressure and body weight.2

Know Your Numbers: Maximum and Target Heart Rate by Age

This table shows target heart rate zones for different ages. Your maximum heart rate is about 220 minus your age.3 In the age category closest to yours, read across to find your target heart rates. Target heart rate during moderate intensity activities is about 50-70% of maximum heart rate, while during vigorous physical activity it’s about 70-85% of maximum.

The figures are averages, so use them as a general guide.

Can music trigger you?

Music causes powerful emotional responses in humans, even physical. For instance, listening to your favourite music can make you feel happy, which triggers an increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, dilated pupils, even the release of dopamine (the brain's 'feel good' chemical).

melod.ie - Top 7 Ways To Trigger An Emotional Response Using Music - Melodie

Believe it or not, music can be effectively used to change our perception of time. Hearing pleasant music can divert our attention away from the passing of time. This ‘time shortening’ effect may be greater in calming music with a slow tempo. You know that on-hold call waiting music? Or background music in the doctor’s surgery? If done correctly, time can fly when listening to the right kinds of music. Similarly in supermarkets, the right music can encourage people to stay for one more trolley ride up and down the aisle to buy more detergent and biscuits. Have a think about how you can use the tempo and tonality of music to alter the apparent speed of a scene in your production.
