Energy Zone Calculator
There are several reasons for training in the different energy zones. This is a newly updated version of the old calculator posted and now includes calculators for the "Spinning" zones, Lactic Threshold Zones & Functional Power Zones. A second tab will also link you to a running specific calculator.

You'll need to know your maximum and minimum heart rates and/or lactic threshold for these calculators.  There are several formulas you can look up online to give you an estimation of your min & max, however you should talk with your instructor if you're looking for more accurate results.

Calorie Burned Calculator
This is a great calculator that I use, and you can use it too right here without having to download any files. Those of you that want your own spreadsheet file can use the link below.

File:
Use this file to calculate the number of calories you burn during a work out.  You will need to know what your average heart rate was during your workout (hopefully you are using a HR monitor), and the number of minutes you participated in the workout.
