What the result means
The result is a practical daily planning estimate. Use the health score and status to judge whether your target is balanced, aggressive, or needs adjustment.
Max HR = 220 − age. Target HR = resting HR + heart-rate reserve × intensity.
This calculator is for general wellness planning only and does not replace professional medical advice.
Example calculation
Using the default values, the calculator estimates a daily target, compares it with the selected goal, and returns a health score for quick decision-making.
Tips for better results
- Use consistent units and update inputs when your body weight or training level changes.
- Compare the result with weekly trends rather than one isolated day.
- Avoid extreme changes; gradual adjustments are easier to maintain.
