Answer:

C. 188

Step-by-step explanation:

Getting the "maximum target heart rate" of a person is very easy. All you have to do is to subtract Juan's age (32) from 220.

So, 220-32 = 188

Therefore, Juan's maximum target heart rate is 188.

When exercising, it is very important not to exceed the maximum heart rate in order to prevent straining yourself. The maximum target heart rate is also being used in order to get your actual "target heart rate." This will depend on the type exercise intensity you want, whether it is moderate or vigorous.
