CARDIORESPIRATORY ENDURANCE

• This worksheet supports the CRE activities in
  your folder

2
To find your heart rate training band.

• Calculate 220 - your age, then click.
• This gives you 100 heart rate on which to base
  your calculations for training purposes.
• e.g. for a 14 year old,
• 220 - 14 206 which represents 100
• i.e. if this persons pulse rate is 206 beats per
  minute, they would be working at maximum effort.

3
Heart rate training band.

• Calculate 60 of your maximum. This will give
  you the lower limit of your training band.
• e.g. 206 100 x 60 123.6 (use 124)
• Calculate 85 of your maximum. This gives you
  the upper limit.
• e.g. 206 100 x 85 175.1 (use 175).

Heart rate training band..a chart of results

• The y-axis refers to your heart rate data. This
  can start at your resting rate and go up to 220.
• The x-axis refers to your training time, ranging
  from 0 to 45 min.
• Draw 2 horizontal lines on your graph to
  represent your upper and lower training limits.
• This should give you a chart as follows

5
Heart rate graph

• This shows an example based on the data in
  previous slides.
• Series 1 is the lower limit Series 2 is the
  upper limit.

6
Drawing your own graph.

• Take your resting pulse rate and plot it on the
  graph.
• Do your practical CRE activity (e.g. skipping,
  jogging, exercise bike, rowing machine) and take
  your pulse rate every 5 minutes.
• Plot these on your graph and draw lines to join
  adjacent points.
• Calculate how much time you spent in your
  training band.
• Calculate how long it took your heart rate to
  return to your resting rate after exercise.

• Well done!
