Fortunately, the heart Itself provides you
~h
key Information

of
safety
of
your training method. Your heart rate, which
Is
expressed In a single number (Beats Per Minute), gives a
constant account of your body's state
of
hea~h
.
Your heart
rate will tell you
how
fast you are using energy
or
whether you
are exerclslng too hard
or
too lax. Obviously, your body does
not benefit from a training method If your heart rate Is too low.
If

from fatigue.
It does not matter whether your goal Is to win athletics
meetings, lose weight
or
simply to Improve your overall health.
What Is Important
Is
that you can refine your training method
by
keeping your heart rate within a certain target zone. In
order to accomp
li
sh this, you would obviously need to know
your precise heart rate
at

may
already know your MHR
if
you are an avid athlete
or
if you have already taken a Max. Hearl Rate test. If not,
the fo
ll
owing formula will
he
lp you to make an educated
guess :
MHR
=
22O
-(Your age)
e.g.
Age
:
20
MHR :
220 - 20
=
200
For instance, the current heart rate is
