Maximum heart rate

I worked out my maximum heart rate. I ran at a steady pace for 15 min then 2 min hard pace followed by 30 seconds flat out sprint. My maximum heart rate was 195 bpm. If you are going to do this tell somebody what you are doing and aim to finish outside your house (doctors or a hospital will also do) If you are not comfortable with doing this test then dont. You can subtract your age in years from 220, this will give you a rough estimate of your maximum heart rate to work with. Next session is a beep test.
