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.
If you're aiming for a target heart rate of 70 to 85 percent, which is in the vigorous range, you would calculate it like this: 1  Subtract your age from 220 to get your maximum heart rate. 2  Multiple that number by 0.7 (70 percent) to determine the lower end of your target heart rate zone.he basic way to calculate your maximum heart rate is to subtract your age from 220. For example, if you're 45 years old, subtract 45 from 220 to get a maximum heart rate of 175.
