According to the American Medical Association, your maximum heart rate is approximately 220 minus your age. Your target heart rate for any kind of training is 50-75% of your maximum heart rate. This is the rate your heart should reach during aerobic exercise like bicycling. If you’re in good shape already, aim for the higher end of that spectrum.
