Hittinâ the Target. Now youâre ready to determine your target training heart rate. Take your pulse on the inside of your wrist, on the thumb side. Use the tips of your first two fingers (not your thumb) to press lightly over the blood vessels on your wrist. Count your pulse for 10 seconds and multiply by 6 to find your beats per minute. You want to stay between 50 percent to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate. This range is your target heart rate.
The standard calculation for determining your target heart rate is 220 minus your age, multiplied by 60 and 80 percent. For example, if you are 35 years old, your target heart rate calculation is 220 minus 35 equals 185; 185 times 0.6 equals 111, and 185 times 0.8 equals 148.n this example, your goal heart rate during sustained aerobic activity is between 111 and 148 beats per minute. If you're new to exercise, your doctor may recommend working out at 50 percent of your maximum heart rate to start out.
