My New Year resolution is to be fit and able to run a full marathon by Dec’10.
Aerobic Heart Rate Zone
Therefore I shall adjust my jogs so that my heart rate is between 123 to 161bpm
The formula for Heart Rates:-
• 65% intensity: (220 − (age = 40)) * 0.65 → 117 bpm
• 85% intensity: (220 − (age = 40)) * 0.85 → 153 bpm
Resting Heart Rate
Next, my resting heart rate target shall be between 66 to 70bpm
Information of normal resting heart rates:
• Newborn infants: 100 - 160 beats per minute
• Children 1 to 10 years: 70 - 120 beats per minute
• Children over 10 and adults (including seniors): 60 - 100 beats per minute
• Well-trained athletes: 40 - 60 beats per minute
