THR is determined lower for first 4-6 weeks
upper limit is intermediate and advanced
Karvonen Formula - Answer - 220-age= Maximum Heart Rate (MHR)
MHR-Resting Heart Rate(RHR)=Heart Rate ReserveHRR
HRR*.6=A desired intensities
HRR*.85=B
A+RHR=Lower THRZ
B+RHR=Upper THRZ Target heart rate zones
Cardiorespiratory Physiology - Answer - Heart Rate HR
