Warm-Up Exercises
Before engaging in any physical activity, it is really important to perform warm-up exercises to
condition our body. In this module, you will be introduced to various warm-up exercises in the course
of our lesson in sports officiating. However, monitoring our Heart Rate is also a prerequisite before
you proceed to strenuous activities. Obtaining the Personal Maximal Heart Rate (PMHR) and Target
Heart Rate (THR) is a must.
Below is the formula to compute the THR at a moderate and vigorous intensities of physical activity:
Moderate (40 - 55%): 220 - age =________________Personal Maximum Heart Rate (PMHR)
PMHR x 0.4 =______________________ bpm PMHR x 0.55 =_____________________
bpm
Vigorous (60 -85%): 220 - age = _________________ Personal Maximum Heart Rate (PMHR)
PMHR x 0.6 =______________________ bpm PMHR x 0.85 = ____________________
bpm
