2. Theoretical Maximal Heart Rate (TMHR) TMHR=220 beats per minute
3. Personal Maximal Heart Rate (PMHR) PMHR= 220-age
Ex. PMHR= 220-16 PMHR=204
4. Training Heart Rate (THR) or Training Pulse Rate (TPR) (60%to 80% of Personal Maximum Heart Rate)
minimum THR = PMHR x 60% maximum THR = PMHR x 80%
Example: minimum THR = 204 x 60% = 122.40
maximum THR = 204 x 80% =163.20
