Max Heart Rate & Recovery Training

Does any one do max heart rate training anymore? I don't think that the 26 year old Coach realizes there is a difference between 220-26= her max hr and 220-50= mine. I am not sure I would recognize heart palpitations with some of the short interval work we get.

    I have never found one that will stay on (chest strap) while pushing off the wall (unless it will cut off all blood flow). Phone around to fabric stores in your area and ask if they carry that sticky "gripper" elastic that is used on the legs of cycling shorts and replace your chest strap elastic with it. I think it usually comes in 1/2" or 3/4" width, which should work. Or, you might be able to find it on an on-line site that sells sports fabrics/accessories such as Rocky Roads or Peak Fabrics.
