Training heart rate zones #39

Closed rnyholm closed 5 years ago

rnyholm commented 5 years ago

Possibility to calculate heart rate zones from either gender and age or maximum heart rate. As we will be using the Karvonen method(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate#Karvonen_method) to calculate the different heart rate zones the user also needs to provide their resting heart rate.

Also needs a toggle bar between training experience; basic or experienced, by toggling this, the percentage of the zones will be slightly adjusted.

Basic Zone 5: 90-100% Zone 4: 80-90% Zone 3: 70-80% Zone 2: 60-70% Zone 1: 50-60%

Experienced Zone 5: 95-100% Zone 4: 85-95% Zone 3: 75-85% Zone 2: 60-75% Zone 1: 50-60%

Show the percentage in the results to indicate what the difference are between Basic and experienced mode. Maybe also present the results with different color schemes, red for zone 5, orange for zone 4 and so on...

Use fox method instead to calculate maximum heart rate, which takes away the need of having the user to give the gender
