Questions fréquentes
- What is the Karvonen formula?
- Target HR = (max HR − resting HR) × intensity% + resting HR. It personalizes zones using your heart rate reserve instead of only max HR.
- Which max heart rate formula should I use?
- 220 − age is a common estimate. Tanaka (208 − 0.7 × age) is often more accurate for adults. Gulati is tailored for women. Use a lab-tested max HR if you have one.
- What are the 5 training zones?
- Typically: Zone 1 recovery (50–60%), Zone 2 endurance (60–70%), Zone 3 aerobic (70–80%), Zone 4 threshold (80–90%), Zone 5 maximum (90–100%).
- How do I measure resting heart rate?
- Count your pulse for 60 seconds right after waking, before getting out of bed. Take the average over several mornings for best accuracy.
- Is my health data uploaded?
