[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi! I confused by all the info out there regarding: heart rate/V02 max/exercise zone. I’m 48 and [b]want to lose about 5lbs[/b] - if I use that formula where you subtract your age from 220 is that my target heart rate? I know that’s not the “fat burning zone” but don’t I need to burn glycogen as well in order lotion lose weight? And how many minutes total should I be aiming for? Thank you in advance for any clarification you can offer! [/quote] Don't over complicate it. No HR zone alone will burn more fat or help you lose weight. It is really not that complicate in that the reason you aren't losing isn't because you are exercising in zone 2 instead of zone 3. Exercise for health, Diet for fat loss. [/quote]
