max heart rate
Pulse speed limit
Max heart rate is the highest number of heartbeats per minute a person's heart can achieve during intense physical exertion.
It's used in fitness to calculate training zones—percentages of max heart rate that target different goals like fat burning or endurance.
The common formula estimates it as 220 minus your age, though individual variation is significant: My max heart rate is around 185.
