I have just bought a Polar HR Monitor and I am trying to get my head around the concept of Maximum Heart rate. I have read in many places that a person's Max HR is approx 220 minus their age. So, I get a figure but what does it really mean
there but it will not record it for me, it only shows the maximum and average heart rate. If you need a 'hate' rate monitor then maybe you need to find some more enjoyable training :)Can you enlist some help? Get someone to follow you on a bike or run laps and shout out your
than is ideal.I'm 30 & my maximum heart rate is apparently about 90. When I run I get to high heart rates very quickly - when I did the Manchester run my heart rate was between 180 & 198 virtually all the way round, except where I cheated a bit
On a recent run I achieved a maximum heart rate of 227. Is this normal or anything to be worried about?When my heart rate hits this high it feels like something inside has lost control. Do I count this as my max HR when calculating training bands
've calculated that I am running close to 80-90% of my maximum heart rate. As detailed in my instruction booklet, I should be running at 60-70% of my maximum heart rate in order to lose weight. I am a little confused, as I also want to maintain/improve my times
HelloI started running a couple of months ago when I got talked into doing the race for life. Now I'm hooked! I bought a heart rate monitor (sigma pc 19) and it's worrying me. In some of the training plans I've seen, they've said to do some easy
thought that seemed a bit high.Many thanks. That depends on what your maximum heart rate is.If you are doing a long run then you might want to run at about 75% of your maximum, but this is no help if you don't know your max. Have a look at this.By the way
Can someone tell how to work out my Working Heart Rate, Thanks Yes. well go on then, my training rests on your shoulders now Mister W Okay, sensible answer...........You need to find your resting HR and maximum HR. Your resting HR is first thing
Can anyone tell me what percentage of maximum heart rate, is recommended for running the London Marathon. My 70% recovery pace is 8 min mileing which i have been doing for my long runs.I've been doing my long runs (20 miles) at 78% maximum heart
