Find your pulse with your fingertips. Count the number of beats for one minute. Repeat this for a total of three times. Add all three numbers together and divide by three. This average is your heart rate.

Subtract your age from 220. For example, a 40-year-old woman has a maximum heart rate of 220 - 40 = 180 beats per minute. Multiply your maximum heart rate by 0.6 to get your lower-limit exercise heart rate. Calculate your upper-limit exercise heart rate by multiplying your maximum heart rate by 0.9. The lower-limit number and the upper-limit number are the range your heart should be in while you exercise.
