Where should my target heart rate zone be in?

darcyinmo

I'm a beginner and out of shape.
I used a calculator to figure my target heart rate zones. Tonight I did the elliptical in two sessions for 6 mins each. My heart rate was apparently in the red zone (oops!)
My question is which is best for me to get the best benefit in?
Fat Burning, Aerobic, Anaerobic?
