So if I did this right it should be something like this? 220 - 31(age) = 189 189 - 72 (resting heart rate) = 117 117 * 65% (low end of heart rate) OR 85% (high end) = 76.05 OR 99.45 76.05 + 65 (resting heart rate) = 141.05 99.45 + 65 (rhr) = 164.45 The target heart rate zone for me is 141-165
As Ray points out the Karvonen method is an alternative to the regular 220 - age formula.
At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.
220 - 47(age) = 180 197 - 42 (resting heart rate) = 138 132 * 65% (low end of heart rate) OR 85% (high end) = 89.7 OR 117.3 85.8 + 65 (resting heart rate) = 131.7 112.2 + 65 (rhr) = 159.3 The target heart rate zone for me is 132-159
That's not exactly correct. With either the HRR or straight percentage method you still need to find out your max and resting HR's in order to get the most benefit from HRM training.
