Here's what happens when I put my own data into Greco's formula:

"Here's a way to figure out the HR for your age, my data:
start with 220 and subtract your age...
220
-45=
175 Max HR

75% training zone (aerobic zone)

175
x 75%
= 131.25

Unfortunately, the training zone number really doesn't work for me. My heart rate has always skyrocketed the second I start breathing hard so for me to stay in the zone around 131, I can't really be doing more than walking somewhere between a meander and a clip. Brisk is not allowed. Forget jogging or running.

I'm good with the max rate, though. Having experienced extremely high HR, I'm happy to stay under that.
