Note! If you are on beta blockers, your maximum heart rate will be lower than the
average for your age group. The magnitude of the reduction depends on your
dosage, so we recommend that you test yourself to determine an accurate
maximum heart rate.

What does your HRmax mean?

HRmax is used in stress testing to
uncover cardiovascular disease, and
is a common means of denoting
intensity for endurance training.
Find your exact HRmax
There is significant variation within
age groups (11 beats/min), so we
recommend that you test yourself to
find your exact HRmax.
Use your HRmax for 4x4 interval
training
During intervals, your heart rate
should be at 90-95% of HRmax, and
during active rest it should be at
approx.. 70%
