Estimate max heart rate and common training zones from age using a simple age-based formula.
Estimate max heart rate and common training zones from age using a simple age-based formula.
Age
The age used to estimate max heart rate with the standard 220 minus age formula.

Training zones
Shows the estimated max heart rate and the fat-burn, cardio, and peak zone bpm ranges.
This version uses the standard 220 minus age formula to estimate max heart rate and then applies percentage ranges for common training zones.
It shows fat-burn, cardio, and peak heart-rate ranges in beats per minute.
No. They are simplified training estimates and may differ from lab-tested or device-specific results.

Estimate max heart rate and common training zones from age using the standard 220 minus age method.
Estimated Max Heart Rate
190 bpm
Fat Burn Zone
95-133 bpm
Cardio Zone
133-162 bpm
Peak Zone
162-181 bpm
These are simplified training estimates and should not replace personalized guidance from a coach or clinician.
Your cardio zone starts around 133 bpm, and your peak effort begins around 162 bpm.
That gives you about a 29-bpm cardio working range before peak intensity kicks in.
Fat Burn
95-133 bpm
Cardio
133-162 bpm
Peak
162-181 bpm
Once you cross 162 bpm, you are no longer in “easy cardio” territory. You are pushing close to your ceiling.
