We've already highlighted the difficulties of trying to establish your maximal heart rate. Now youve mastered that, heres another problem: once youve found your true maximum, how do you know exactly what heart rates you should be training at? We

percentages make me run fartoo slowly.A: The most accurate way to calculate target heart rates is to use percentages of your working heart rate rather than of your straight maximum. Here's what to do: Subtract your resting heart rate from your maximum (eg 200
