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 basic formula for calculating maximum heart rate is to subtract your age from 220. Your target heart rate during exercise ranges from 50 percent to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate, depending on the intensity of the activity.However, this method for calculating maximum heart rate and target heart rate zones might be inaccurate for well-conditioned individuals or athletes.hile the normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute, conditioned athletes and other highly fit individuals might have normal resting heart rates of 40 to 60 beats per minute.
