• The chart below shows the heart rate level using %HR max. HR max
= 220 - Age with every 10 years of age as an age zone. This chart is a
reference for appropriate training output using the heart training mode.
• The unit for heart rate is bpm (beats per minute), or heartbeats per
minute.
• Maximum heart rate = 220 － age. If your age is 20, then 22
200 bpm, and your maximum heart rate is 200 bpm.
• Maximum heart rate (maximum heart rate, MHR, or HRmax)
refers to the maximum heart rate for optimizing exercise or stamina.
It is often used as the prescribed index for training output in order to
find the THR. The most direct and accurate method of measuring the
maximum heart rate is to have this done by a doctor or professional.

• The target heart rate (THR) or training heart rate is used to find the
ideal rate for the optimal performance of aerobics to maximize the
benefit to your heart and lungs. You can find your own upper and
lower range target heart rate using the maximum heart rate formula
(%HRmax).
• In general, for persons with less than optima

recommended that the low-strength target heart rate range be set at
60% or below.

• Note 1: The 40-220 range is the normal MB100 setting range, but the
range values can be user defined. The graph will show the strength of
the training according to the value configured.
• Note 2: If the user defined training o
