Which of the following is the correct formula to finding your target HR?
A
220-(your age)
B
(30 sec HR) x 2
C
RHR x Max HR
D
Max HR x .70
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The maximum heart rate can be estimated using the commonly used formula of 220 minus your age in years (220-age), or a more accurate formula 208-0.7 x age (Tanaka et al., 2001).

Detailed explanation-2: -If you’re aiming for a target heart rate in the vigorous range of 70% to 85%, you can use the heart rate reserve (HRR) method to calculate it like this: Subtract your age from 220 to get your maximum heart rate.

Detailed explanation-3: -Heart Rate by Age The traditional method, also known as HRmax, is a simple way of gauging your maximum heart rate. Start by subtracting your age from 220. Then, use the result to calculate your range. For example, if you’re 50 years old, the calculation would be: 220-50 = 170 (HRmax).
