Heart Rate Zone Calculator

Calculate your 5 training heart rate zones from max HR or age. Use these zones to structure Zone 2 cardio, threshold work, and HIIT sessions.

Method: Max HR estimated as 220 − age (Tanaka formula gives similar results). Zone 1: <57% max, Zone 2: 57–63%, Zone 3: 64–76%, Zone 4: 77–95%, Zone 5: 96–100%. Zone 2 is the aerobic base zone, critical for VO₂ max and longevity.
