Karvonen Calculator helps you determine your target heart rate zone. This involves using your maximum heart rate (MHR) minus your age to come up with a target heart rate range (which is a percentage of your MHR). Staying within this range will help you work most effectively during your cardio workouts

Latest reviews of Karvonen Calculator app for iPhone and iPad

This app doesnt use the Karvonen formula!
I bought this application to be able to quickly calculate a more precise heart rate target zone using the Karvonen formula. As the title suggests, this is what I was paying for. Instead it just uses the normal 220-your age formula which is proven to be less precise.... This calculation I (and everybody else) can do using the free calculator on any phone.... I wouldnt pay the dollar 29 cents if I were you.....

P.O.S
Total crap app. Does not calculate range, only calculates HR max (220-age) and gives you HRR but labels it as resting HR. Waste of $. DO NOT BUY!!!!

Inaccurate and misleading tool. Hoped to have handy calculator when working with clients. This was a waste of $0.99.

Inaccurate
Waste of money!
