Modest heart rate can help fitness
Dear Dr. Donahue, I seek clarification on heart rate goals for aerobic exercise. Some sources cite maximum heart rate, others target rate. The target rate or range is your goal for fitness. Use age to compute 220 minus age, then 70 percent of that value as the bottom of the target range.

Medical target range and aerobic benefits explained
The upper target range is 85 percent and caution is advised when raising heart rates. Always consult a doctor before intense activity. Aerobic benefits do not require reaching the formula range. benefits can occur with heart rate only about 20 beats above resting.
