Question: What is the maximum my heartrate should be while I am working out..?
When should I slow it down a little.?Health Question & Answer

Answers:
The best way to find out your maximum heart rate would be to see a cardiologist to accurately find this number. (Although costly possibly).

Aside from that there is a general guideline for finding your MHR.

WOMEN: 226-your age = age-adjusted Max HR
MEN: 220-your age = age-adjusted Max HR

This value however is not a heart rate you will be able to sustain while working out. You will likely be able to do 70-80% of this heart rate for at least 15 minutes to start.Health Question & Answer
