What to pay attention to when testing?
Note what the highest heart rate (maximum heart rate) you will achieve in the last five minutes of the test. This will be your maximum heart rate (HRmax) value. If you feel that the second or third effort is maximum for you, stop the test and take the heart rate obtained as the maximum (HRmax).
