Enter age and the tool applies the empirically-fit Tanaka et al. (2001) formula HRmax = 208 − 0.7 × age to estimate maximum heart rate (bpm), compares it with the traditional 220 − age rule and shows 50–90% intensity zones — the standard reference for running, cycling, HIIT and cardiac-rehab target heart rates.

Enter resting heart rate (RHR), maximum heart rate (HRmax) and a target intensity %; the tool applies the Karvonen formula THR = RHR + (HRmax − RHR) × intensity% and lists the 50 / 60 / 70 / 80 / 90 % training zones — more individualised than a flat percent-of-max because it accounts for the lifter's aerobic baseline.
