Maximum heart rate is not the higher the better.
1. Maximum heart rate refers to the highest level of heart rate reached when the oxygen consumption and heart rate cannot continue to increase with the increase of exercise load. The formula for estimating the maximum heart rate is 220 minus the value obtained by age. The younger the age, the greater the maximum heart rate, which is usually used to guide patients to choose the appropriate exercise intensity.
2. Maximum heart rate is mainly used to guide patients to exercise, the best range of heart rate control during physical exercise should be 65-85% of the maximum heart rate, the maximum heart rate does not reflect the reserve function of the heart, nor does it reflect the physical quality of the human body, it is only a reference indicator, related to age, ethnicity and other factors, so the maximum heart rate is not the higher the better.
