The best way to determine that is a treadmill stress test. The next best way is 220-your age=your predicted maximum heart rate. Determine what percent you want to work at by multiplying that% by your predicted max HR.

This formula does not take into account your fitness level. If you are just starting out use the low end. If you are in very good shape, use the high end. Lets say High end is swimming 5 miles out, 5 miles back and then have enough energy for aerobics per one of my Navy Seal buddies.

Training range:

1 Start with 220 and subtract your age = Maximum safe heart range

2. Multiply your Maximum rate by .60 [for 60%] = Low end of your range

3. Multiply your Maximum rate by .90 [for 90%] = High end of your range

4. Divide [low or high] by 6 to find 10 second heart rate.

How long should your heart rate stay elevated after workout?

It depends upon what "elevated" means as well as your level of conditioning. It is best to check with your physician in advance. As a rule, three minutes after your fitness exercises ends, you should be lower than 50% of your predicted maximum heart rate. Therefore, figure out your predicted maximum heart rate in advance (or just ask your physician) and check your pulse three minutes after the end of your training. If it is too high, your are training too strenuously, so reduce the intensity of your training and build up more slower to a greater degree of fitness.
