To solve this, just plug in the given age (60) in your formula (MHR=217-((2/3)age)). This gives you MHR=217-((2/3)60)=217-(120/3)=217-40=177. This means Ian's MHR is 177.

The MHR for Ian when he's training is 177 bpm.

What is MHR?

Maximum heart rate, or MHR, refers to the total number of beats per minute, or the sum of ventricular contractions in which blood is oxygenated and pumped throughout the body during strenuous exercise. This method serves as a benchmark for determining the relative health of any individual using a formula to calculate the extent at which maximal volume of oxygen is recycled by the heart.

Given,

Ian's age = 60

MHR = 217 - ( \(\frac{2}{3}\) × Age)

MHR = 217 - ( \(\frac{2}{3}\) × 60)

         = 177

Hence, the MHR is calculated in beats per minute (bpm) is 177 bpm.
