I'm just saying that it's very likely that your max HR is a good bit higher than 220-age. According to that formula, mine should be 174, but is in fact 189. My LTHR is 166, down from a recorded high of 172-- just two beats shy of the formula's guessed max. As you ride more and become better conditioned, your LTHR usually drops a bit.
