MHR • Maximum Heart Rate • 220 – your age = your MHR
THRZ • Target Heart Rate Zone • 60 – 80% of your Maximum Heart Rate • Lower Range of THRZ = MHR * 60% • Upper Range of THRZ = MHR * 80%
F.I.T.T. • A training guideline to build a fitness program • Frequency – how often a person exercises • Intensity – how hard a person exercises • Time – how long a person exercises • Type- what kind of exercise is performed
