With a documented max HR of 194 that would put me at 26 years old. I don’t think so!!! I do know that I have a higher than average HR.

I haven’t researched it but I’m willing to bet that people who have been involved in aerobic exercises over a long period of time (since their 20s) have max heart rates more similar to what it was when they were younger.

I’m just hoping my body is somewhat equivalent to a 26 year old!!

In order to establish your max HR it really needs to be recorded under controlled conditions.
