### Target heart rate
max heart rate = (220 - age)
"The target heart rate method is a simple formula: take 220 and minus your age.
Then take that number and multiply it by .75 - .85, which will give you your
percentages of 75% -- 85% of your Max. HR."

### Metabolism
* At rest, 33% of the body's energy comes from carbohydrates, or glycogen,
stored within the muscles and liver. 66% comes from fat.
* During aerobic work, 50-60% of the energy comes from fats
* Primarily carbohydrates are used during the first several minutes of exercise
* For an average fit person, it takes 20 to 30 minutes of continuous aerobic
activity to burn 50% fat and 50% carbohydrate
* There is approximately a 7 fold increase of fat mobilization after 1 hour of
exercise
* Low intense exercise (less than 30% VO2 max) relies primarily on fat whereas
high intense exercise (greater than 70% VO2 max) primarily utilized
carbohydrate.
