Karvonen Heart Rate Formula

Conosciuto anche come: Target Heart Rate Formula, Heart Rate Reserve Method

THR = ((HR_{max} - HR_{rest}) \times \%intensity) + HR_{rest}

THR = (HRmax - HRrest) × %intensity + HRrest

Cosa calcola

Calculates target heart rate for a specific training intensity using heart rate reserve (HRR). More personalized than simple percentage of max HR because it accounts for resting heart rate.

variabili

Simbolo	Nome	Unità	Descrizione
THR	Target Heart Rate	bpm	Heart rate to aim for during exercise
HR_{max}	Max Heart Rate	bpm	Maximum heart rate (220 - age)
HR_{rest}	Resting Heart Rate	bpm	Heart rate at complete rest
%intensity	Intensity	decimal	Desired exercise intensity (e.g., 0.70 for 70%)

Esempi lavorati

1HRR = 185 - 65 = 120

2THR = 120 × 0.70 + 65 = 84 + 65 = 149 bpm

Risultato: 149 bpm
