Why Heart Rate Matters

Monitoring your heart rate during exercise ensures you’re working at the right intensity to improve cardiovascular fitness. Your target heart rate zone (50–85% of your maximum heart rate) optimizes fat burning and endurance. A lower resting heart rate indicates better heart efficiency. Use our calculator to find your zones, and explore our Resting Heart Rate Guide to understand your baseline. Regular exercise in your zone, paired with a healthy diet, can reduce heart disease risk by up to 30%, per the American Heart Association.

Your target heart rate zone guides your workouts to maximize heart health benefits. Exercise at 50–70% of your max heart rate for moderate activities like brisk walking or yoga, ideal for beginners. For vigorous workouts like running or cycling, aim for 70–85%. Use a fitness tracker to stay in your zone—learn how in our Monitoring Guide. Pair exercise with stress management techniques from our Blog and a balanced diet. Consult a doctor before starting, as noted in our Terms.
