Maximum HR with exercise
Maximum HR with exercise is defined as
[A] HRmax = 120 − Age
[B] HRmax = 220 − Age
[C] HRmax = 320 − Age
[D] HRmax = 420 − Age
Newer equations for predicting maximum Heart Rate during excecise
[Have been proposed to more accurately]
Replace the “220 − age” rule to generate the maximum age-predicted
HR (MPHR):
Men : HRmax = 208 − (0.7 × Age)
Women : HRmax = 206 − (0.88 × Age)
Newer equations for predicting maximum Heart Rate during excecise | Male/Female | EQUATION |
1 | Men | HRmax = 208 − (0.7 × Age) |
2 | Women | HRmax = 206 − (0.88 × Age) |
