A member asked:
What should a 56 year old womans heart rate be that does not exercise often just walks a little bit?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
220 Minus age: This is the standard formula. Subtract the age from 220. You cab easily push up to at least 80% of that target heart rate -- in this example 220-56 is 164 and 80% of that is 130 or so
