• Age formulas give an average for people your age; your own maximum can be higher or lower. Tanaka and colleagues found 220 − age underestimates maximum heart rate in older adults.
• This is an estimate for general information, not medical advice. Talk to a doctor or other qualified health professional about your own situation.
