Heart Rate Training Zones

Heart rate training zones are ranges that reflect how hard your heart is working during exercise, helping optimize fitness and performance. These zones are usually based on a percentage of your maximum heart rate. For example, light activity (50-60%) improves recovery and endurance, while moderate efforts (60-70%) boost cardiovascular health. Higher zones, like 70-85%, increase strength and speed, but are more intense and sustainable only briefly. Training within specific zones allows you to target your fitness goals safely and effectively, ensuring you're working at the right intensity for your desired results.
