The five commonly recognized heart rate zones are based on a percentage of an individual's maximum heart rate (MHR). The MHR is typically calculated using the formula 220 minus the person's age. The zones are:
Zone 1 - Very Light (50-60% MHR): This zone is ideal for warm-ups, cooldowns, and light recovery exercises. It promotes blood circulation and helps prepare the body for more intense workouts.
Zone 2 - Light (60-70% MHR): This is the aerobic training zone, where the body primarily relies on oxygen to produce energy. It is suitable for longer duration exercises, building endurance, and burning fat.
Zone 3 - Moderate (70-80% MHR): In this zone, individuals begin to push their limits, experiencing increased intensity. It is effective for improving aerobic capacity, stamina, and overall cardiovascular fitness.
Zone 4 - Hard (80-90% MHR): This is the anaerobic zone, where the body relies more on stored glycogen for energy. Training in this zone enhances cardiovascular performance, increases speed, and improves the body's ability to handle lactic acid.
Zone 5 - Maximum (90-100% MHR): This is the highest intensity zone, suitable for short bursts of high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Training in this zone improves power, speed, and anaerobic capacity.
Individuals can benefit from heart rate zone training by customizing their workouts based on their specific fitness goals
Heart rate zone training offers a personalized and effective approach to cardiovascular exercise. By understanding and utilizing the different heart rate zones, individuals can optimize their workouts, achieve specific fitness objectives, and improve overall cardiovascular health in a systematic and sustainable manner.

Great explanations 🙏 Thank you for helping a newbie out!
The problem with using heart rate based training zones is that you need to calibrate your heart rate (as measured by heart rate monitor) to your individual aerobic and anaerobic thresholds (as measured by blood lactate tests). There is a lot of variation in aerobic/anaerobic thresholds across individuals and over time. The relationship between heart rate and blood lactate is also modality specific, meaning the heart rate that corresponds to zone 2 when you’re running is different from when you’re cycling, swimming, rowing or skiing.
Because of this it’s often as good or even better to just estimate training zones based on how you feel.
Heart rate IS useful for tracking your fitness. If you keep track of your distance, average pace and average heart rate for runs you can track how your fitness improves over time (heart rate should decrease for the same distance and pace).
I would say, your smart watch estimated zones are good enough.
Your heart rate will variate anyway in those zones, so as long as you are around those real zones, your heart rate will eventually be around the accurate zones for long enough.
It's not 0s and 1s, it's more a spectrum... Don't have to make it too scientific, as long as you are not an elite athlete.
@@Henningberlin94 exactly. You dont have to be crazy precise for heart rate training to work.
Great stuff, thank you!
Good information in general , but why don't you use the Karvonen formula for calculating the heartrate-zones?
The zones should be calculated on the basis of Heart Rate Reserve (HRR) i.e. Max HR- Resting HR, not on the basis of the Max HR.
The logic is that you can not get under your resting heart rate so that should be viewed as 0%
Thanks for the video, very clear!
2 questions )
- How would i program these during the week alongside strength work, conditioning work and sports practice ?(i do jiu jitsu and wrestling, ill lift once a week, im currently trying to do some conditioning like sprints/jumps but its difficult with school/work and ill usually get my cardio from weekend soccer/football with friends)
- and then how would i program/periodize these over the course of a season and off season? Would i just do mostly the higher intensity zone 4/5 with a little of zone 2/3 during off season, and then switch it to mostly 2/3 and less 4/5 during the season?
Sir can you make a video about power training. Like in the middle of the strength-velocity curve. Thanks in advance sir.
What do u think about alternatively using Heart Rate Reserve HRR to calculate training zones?
How do the zones apply to different types of sprinting workouts?
Does it makes a difference when i calculate my zone 2 with 0,75?
Do you have any programs balencing Tendon/Max Strength Training and Speed Strength Training within the same period? Possibly within the same workout of lift lower body 2x a week?
Ameture MMA and Military both have limited time making complex periodization difficult. As well as ability to lift in the week while balancing direct skill training and running.
I would be interested in if you had any such programs or video content for generalist athletes.
I found your channel as I am interested in developing tendon strength to prevent injury and speed strength to be more explosive. So would like to train both simultaneously.
Damn, I must have a heart condition or something. I've been running and exercising for years, my resting heart rate is consistently 80bpm and I regularly go for 1 hour runs at 170-180bpm the entire run. Am I putting to much strain on my heart? EDIT: as a teenager I could regularly get my HR over 200bpm
UPDATE: Got a fitness watch. My resting HR is around 55 ish. When up and doing casual things it's 80. I just did a 5k in under 25m and my HR averaged 190bpm, maxing at 201bpm. I did push myself to my limit tho, as I am getting back into running after some months
At rest your heart rate should be able to go lower than 80 very often. Average of 80 is ok i guess. If you run for years and nothing random or special in your life you'd say that at some point you can run for one hour with lower bpm. Or youre running insanely fast
Yeah go get some insurance and go to a cardiologist
most literature will say that a resting heart rate is anywhere from 60-80 bpm... while Dr. Andy Galpin (Dr. Huberman's peer) suggest that resting with a 80 bpm heart rate, something is going on.
Your watch is broke. Lol
I have a heart condition and that's low-key how I was running around before having an unknown cardiac event that really derailed me for years. Go get that checked out.
“Zone 4” or whatever one calls the zone above your capacity to effectively shuttle lactate (ie above lactate shuttle threshold) is NOT anaerobic. It’s still aerobic. Anaerobic should be Zone 5 - you can do very little at anaerobic level - like minutes.
Even zone 5 isn’t 100% anaerobic.
Last night I did a 10 mile run right in the middle of what would be Zone 4 for me. I was able to keep my heart rate at the same rate for the entire run. And I completed the run in 1 hour 40 minutes. Is it bad if I do this type of training once a week?
Mojo are you the Mojo I know
I think for someone very trained in cardio it’s more like 220 - age + 10, but for a non exercise person yeah 220 - age is pretty accurate, tho it makes me wonder as someone gets older their max heart rate drops, so what does that mean? They’ll never be as athletic? Or is the heart getting more efficient?
What kind of made up bullshit is this?
Yeah. I'm 36 and I can get my heart rate 200-208bpm.
@@intheknow3989 that’s pretty high
@@intheknow3989 cool story.
@_baller not really. Resting is 56. I'm disagreeing with 220-age for maximum heart rate. It just isn't true.
Is it really that important to build aerobic base??
I do mma and i like doing zone 4-5 always otherwise i dont enjoy and feel like ive done nothing.
And also is it easier to regain lost anerobic and aerobic fitness?
Yes. It is.
Zone 5 is important, but you should only be doing zone 5 20% of the time, and zone 2 the rest of the time.
Agree
aerobic base is like the most important thing for mma. if you don’t have cardio endurance, you’re nothing.
so with the heart rate test, it's expected to be at max HR by stage 7? or we keep going up stages pass that until we can't?
Keep going until you can't go anymore
@@TheMovementSystem thank you!
Yea I understand the zones . And numbers but not really into exercises kept talking going running riding a bike. Lots of ppl do cross fit gym programs hitt so it clean heart but doesn't get into any other exercises
So lets say i want to train for a long run but also a fast pace
Here zone 2 or zone 4??
Anaeroboc?
I needed a little refresher on how hard I should exercise and tbh my only threshold is how long my 🐈 can take the home trainer saddle 😂
Definitely don’t use “fat as a fuel source” running. Once your body uses all the glycogen it’s consuming lean muscle before fat.
This is really easy to measure actually and we have good data on it. At low intensity (ex: zone 2) the split is ~60-70% of energy from carbs, ~30-40% from fat ~5% or less from protein. In a near carb depleted state (which is rare) the protein contribution can go up to ~10-15% but never really beyond that. And the overall intensity and calorie burn of exercise will be far lower in that state
Like for example I know you’re an athlete and I know your max HR is higher I’m 29 and my max HR is around 203
Max heart rate is just genetic. It doesn’t increase with training. One of the top triathletes in the world actually has a max heart rate of around 155. Still super fit because his heart chamber is huge
disagree on zone 5
You confused sprint intervals to VO2 max training. print intervals are good, but only to build mitochondria density cause your heart rate wont have the time to elevate at maximum during 10 or even 20 seconds. If you want to increase vo2 max which is the reason of zone 2 training, you need to spend as much time at your max or HR or as much to the max as possible. Is a very fast run that you ca probably hold for 4-5 minutes then rest for 4-5 and repeat. Time at vo2 max is the key.
Tbh I disagree with a lot of this. Zone 2 doesn’t really stop at 70% of max HR either. Because HR and all of this is so individual, HR training methodologies (such as the maffetone method) are really limiting without understanding your individual HR zones/LT1&2/VO2 max, which you’ll only get from a lab test.
My easy runs sit between 65% and 80% of my max HR; I’ve had this verified in the lab, to back up my RPE/watch HR zones. But this video doesn’t really account for any of this 🤷🏼♂️😂
As long as you below (not at) Lactate threshold, it should be zone 2 😉
Cool story bro.
@@TumoRunswhere’s your video at? So someone can call bullshit on it.
2:21 --- 70% is too, too high a number ... Only a well trained runner can carry this load very long. This is suppose to be a very easy run, not a grueling effort. lol
Dang that’s a really small threshold for some 2 I don’t exactly think that’s correct
No one cares what you think.
@@charliesmashWell, there's a lot of conflicting advice on this. My zone 2 is at a much higher heart rate.
my apple watch told me I spent 13 min of my run in zone 5 ….
Apple Watch is incorrect. Get a chest scrap. Heart rate chest. That will tell you 100% what your heart rate is and what zone you're in.
Well i got a chest strap and it told me i spent 32 min in Zone 5. And it was an easy run. I guess I'll have to find my max, as 220 - my age is not correct for me.
you have no idea what you are talking about
