The฀most฀efcient฀procedure฀to฀burn฀fat฀during฀exercise฀is฀to฀start฀at฀a฀slow฀pace฀and฀gradually฀increase฀your฀intensity฀until฀your฀heart฀rate฀reaches฀between฀60฀–฀85%฀of฀your฀maximum฀heart฀rate.฀Continue฀at฀that฀pace,฀keeping฀your฀heart฀rate in that target zone for over 20 minutes. The longer you maintain your target heart rate, the more fat your body will
burn.
The graph is a brief guideline, describing the generally suggested target heart rates based on age. As noted above, your
optimal target rate may be higher or lower. Consult your physician for your individual target heart rate zone.
