- The displayed stats are grouped into unique, individual class performance and will display;
Location, Date, Time, Class Type, Duration, and number of Participants.
Page Definitions
Date Range: Opportunity to choose a date range to view your client's heart rate performance data.

Search (field box): Opportunity to search your client list by 'First Name' or 'Last Name.'
Class Date: Day and time that the customer attended.
First Name: First name of customer.
Last Name: Last name of customer.
Duration: The complete duration of the class.
Avg HR (Average Heart Rate): The average heart rate throughout the class.
High HR (High Heart Rate): The peak heart rate achieved during the class.
Max HR% (Max Heart Rate Percentage): Percentage of the average heart rate during the workout compared to the max heart rate.
Calories: Total calories burned during the class.
Points: The points accumulated by the individual throughout the class the duration, which will dictate their Zone placement.
Heart Rate Zones
Blue Zone (Zone 1): Healthy Heart Zone
- This zone is 50% to 60% of your maximum heart rate. This is an easy and comfortable zone to exercise in.
- You will be able to carry on a full conversation in this zone, although you may be breathing a little heavier than usual.
- Your workout in this zone is less intense and won't give the most cardiorespiratory training benefits. But studies have shown that it works to help decrease body fat, blood pressure and cholesterol.
Green Zone (Zone 2): Fitness Zone
- This zone is from 60 to 70% of your maximum heart rate.
- You will be breathing heavier but will still be able to speak in short sentences.
- You burn more calories per minute than in the healthy heart zone because the exercise is a little more intense - you are going faster and therefore covering more distance. The calories burned depend on the distance you cover and your weight more than any other factors.
- You get the same health benefits and fat-burning benefits as the healthy heart zone.
Yellow Zone (Zone 3): Aerobic Zone
- This zone is from 70%-80% of your maximum heart rate.
- You will be breathing very hard and able only to speak in short phrases.
- This is the zone to aim for when training for endurance. It spurs your body to improve your circulatory system by building new blood vessels, and increases your heart and lung capacity.
- Aiming for 20 to 60 minutes in this zone is believed to give the best fitness training benefits.
- With the increase in intensity, you burn more calories in the same amount of time, as you are covering more distance in that same time. Calories burned depend most on distance and your weight. If you go further in the same time, you burn more calories per minute.
Orange Zone (Zone 4): Anaerobic Zone - Threshold Zone
- This zone is 80% to 90% of your maximum heart rate.
- You will be unable to speak except a single, gasped word at a time.
- This intense exercise will improve the amount of oxygen you can consume - your VO2 maximum.
- This exertion level takes you to the limit where your body begins to produce lactic acid. Racewalkers use this zone to build their ability to go even faster.
- Workouts in this heart rate zone should be in the 10 to 20 minute range, or part of an interval training workout.
- You burn more calories per minute than with the lower heart rate workouts, as you are covering more distance per minute.
Red Zone (Zone 5): Red-Line Zone
- The top zone is from 90+% of your maximum heart rate. Most people can't stay in this zone for more than a few minutes.
- You will be unable to speak except for gasping single words.
- This zone should only be used for short bursts during interval training, where you work intensely for a minute and then drop back down to a lower intensity for several minutes, and repeat.
