Hello

    I just need age and resting HR and I will give your your optimal cardio zone levels!! So I have your age, now just give me your RHR.

    Thanks for replying. I believe my resting heart rate is about 84 when I turn it on.

    Your zones between 50% and 85% are 150-185. So those are the actual zones your HR should be set to. I lowered your RHR a little because your true RHR is best tested as soon as you wake up. You hardly move-just move your hand to your pulse and count it for a minute-or put your monitor on as soon as you wake up!! But that is a general guildline to where your HRM should be set.
