Maximum Estimated Heart Rate Calculator



Formula

The formula to calculate the Maximum Estimated Heart Rate (HRmax) is:

\[ \text{HRmax} = 220 - \text{Age} \]

What is Maximum Estimated Heart Rate?

Maximum Estimated Heart Rate (HRmax) is the maximum number of beats per minute that your heart can sustain during intense exercise.

It is estimated using the formula \( 220 - \text{Age} \), where Age is your current age in years.

Example

If you are:

Calculate the Maximum Estimated Heart Rate:

\[ \text{HRmax} = 220 - 30 = 190 \text{ beats per minute} \]

Therefore, the Maximum Estimated Heart Rate for a 30-year-old would be 190 beats per minute.
