Heart rate (MHR) and Borg Scale

1. Heart rate

   • To work this out you must do: 220- age
   • Our upper threshold is 85% 0.85
   • our lower threshold is 60% 0.60

2. The Borg Scale

   • In sports and particularly exercise testing, the Borg RPE Scale measures perceived exertion.
   • <--------- this is what the borg scale looks like
   • To work out an estimated heart rate from using the scale you would do: 10 ÷ heart rate (BPM)= HPE
