Whos got their July Bicycling issue? Love the new Max Heart rate formula on page 30! Now there is nothing like having a real sport MD take you on a Max test but not too many MD will, liability issues, which is why most just use 220-age. Bicyclings excellent Training columnist Selene Yeager found a formula evidence based from Scandinavian Journal of Med. & Science in Sports: 211-.64(your age)! Find it very realistic for Seniors, try a comparison using ages 30, 40, 50, 65! 220 minus age and this new formula. 220-age is bias against Seniors driven, in my opinion, by insurance companies. Could ask Ruben about my 12 year experience as Personal trainer. This information is provided to those cleared by their MD to exercise vigorously and free of charge, and I do not assume liability for misuse and going against MDs orders.
