What is the maximum heart rate for a 37-year-old?
For a 37-year-old, the estimated maximum heart rate (HRmax) is:\n\nTanaka (2001) — recommended: 182 bpm\nFormula: 208 − (0.7 × 37) = 182 bpm\n\nFox (1971) — classic: 183 bpm\nFormula: 220 − 37 = 183 bpm\n\nGellish (2007) — validated: 181 bpm\nFormula: 207 − (0.7 × 37) = 181 bpm\n\nTraining zones at age 37 (using Tanaka HRmax 182 bpm):\nZ1 Warm-up (50-60%): 91-109 bpm\nZ2 Fat Burn (60-70%): 109-127 bpm\nZ3 Aerobic (70-80%): 127-146 bpm\nZ4 Threshold (80-90%): 146-164 bpm\nZ5 VO2 Max (90-100%): 164-182 bpm\n\nAHA moderate exercise target (50-70%): 91-127 bpm\nAHA vigorous exercise target (70-85%): 127-155 bpm\n\nNote: These are population averages. Your actual HRmax may vary by ±10-12 bpm. The only accurate way to measure HRmax is via a maximal graded exercise test under medical supervision.
