FInding max heartrate on the erg

Post by MOKO » March 23rd, 2006, 1:28 am

I just procured a heart monitor...

Using the erg, what is a good distance, time, set of intervals, or other method to achieve a benchmark max heart rate?

I'm sure I could go read a book, but I'm sure many of you will want to share your experience to help your fellow man. :o :wink:
