A new age-based equation for predicting maximum heart rate in endurance-trained runners

Abstract This study aimed to generate an age-based maximum heart rate (HRmax) equation for endurance-trained runners. Thirty-four male runners performed three tests on a motorized treadmill, starting at 8 km h-1 with increments of 1 km h-1 every 1, 2 or, 3 min. HRmax was defined as the highest heart...
