Calculate Anaerobic Threshold

Formula

To calculate the anaerobic threshold:

\[ \text{AT} = (220 - \text{A}) \times 0.875 \]

What is an Anaerobic Threshold?

An anaerobic threshold is defined as the point at which the human body switches from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism. The threshold is reached when a person's heart rate reaches 85-90% of their maximum heart rate.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{AT} = (220 - 30) \times 0.875 = 165.00 \, \text{BPM} \]

The Anaerobic Threshold is 165.00 BPM.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{AT} = (220 - 45) \times 0.875 = 152.88 \, \text{BPM} \]

The Anaerobic Threshold is 152.88 BPM.
