220-(age)=maximal heart rate
If you want to know your optimal training range take that number and multiply it by .62 and .9
Example: 220-37=183
183x.9=165
183 x .64=117
This respresents the heart rate values that fall between 64% and 90% of maximal heart rate which is the range generally recommended to achieve aerobic fitness. It's good to stay in between this range for atleast 20 consecutive minutes.
