  3. Name:_____________ Date:______________ Class:______________ How to Calculate Your Target Heart Rate (Karvonen Method) • Find your resting heart rate as soon as you wake up. You can do this by counting your pulse for one minute: ________= (RHR) • Find your maximum heart rate and heart rate reserve. • Subtract your age from 220.: 220-age( )=___= (HRmax) • Subtract your RHR from your Hrmax: ___-_____= = Heart rate reserve (HRmaxRESERVE) • Calculate the lower limit of your THR. Figure 60% of the HRmaxRESERVE (multiply by 0.6) and add your RHR to the answer.: (___x_.6)+ _=___ • Calculate the upper limit of your THR. Figure 80% of the HRmaxRESERVE (multiply by 0.8) and add your RHR to the answer.: ( x 0.8)+ =____ • Combine the values obtained in steps 3 and 4 and divide by the number 2. This is your target heart rate (THR): ( + ) / 2 =____
