Your Max is 198 50% is 99 70% is 138 so your range is 99 to 138. You don't want to over exert yourself because then you may get discouraged.

I eat them everyday - just plain. I eat the black pitted lindsay olives. They are like 75 calories for 12 olives. They are quite filling. I hope they are healthy - I'd hate to have to give them up! |

| Fitness | Target Heart Rate Issues....HELP!!?? | Mar 12 2008 20:32 (UTC) |

This helped me. a person's target heart rate should be 50 to 70% of his or her maximum heart rate. This maximum rate is based on the person's age. An estimate of a person's maximum age-related heart rate can be obtained by subtracting the person's age from 220. For example, for a 50-year-old person, the estimated maximum age-related heart rate would be calculated as 220 - 50 years = 170 beats per minute (bpm). The 50% and 70% levels would be: 50% level: 170 x 0.50 = 85 bpm, and 70% level: 170 x 0.70 = 119 bpm Thus, moderate-intensity physical activity for a 50-year-old person will require that the heart rate remains between 85 and 119 bpm during physical activity. |

You can purchase weight workout DVDs and work out at home using the weights you already have. I have been working out to Jari Love's Ripped DVD as well as doing cardio on my elliptical trainer or stationary bike. You really don't have to join a gym to work out. Good luck to you! |

I have an elliptical trainer and stationary bike. I also have various weights, exercise balls, resistance bands and a step platform (from the firm) I have always worked out at home. I tried joining a gym once and it just did not work out for me. I like exercising in the privacy of my home and it is so convenient. I also have various work out DVDs. |
