Gulati Heart Rate Calculator for Women
Calculate women's maximum heart rate using the Gulati formula (206 - 0.88 × age). Specifically designed for female athletes.
About Gulati Formula (Women)
The Gulati formula (HRmax = 206 - 0.88 × age) was developed specifically for women based on a study of over 5,000 female participants at Northwestern University. Women's hearts respond differently to exercise than men's, and the traditional 220-age formula significantly overestimates max HR in women.
