Frequently asked questions
- What is heart rate reserve?
- HRR = Maximum HR − Resting HR. It represents the range of heart rates available for exercise. A higher HRR (lower resting HR) generally indicates better cardiovascular fitness.
- How is this different from the simple percentage method?
- Simple method: THR = MHR × intensity%. Karvonen: THR = (MHR − RHR) × intensity% + RHR. Karvonen gives higher target HRs at the same percentage because it accounts for resting heart rate.
