Everyone is different, so you really cannot compare efforts by looking at straight bpm. You have to establish your resting rate and your Max and your LT. None of these can be determine by formula you have to do direct measurement. For instance I am 50, my RHR = 58 bpm, my MHR = 197 bpm and my LTHR = 163bpm.
Once you have established these values you can look at various methods for HR sone training zone are focused on MHR others Lactate Threshold.
