Increased the amount of workout, so went a little down on the max.
Max :197, rest 48 and falling (hopefully).
How much you produce in a zone, and for how long you can stay in say 90% is a much
more interesting question.

Resting: 38 ish
Max: 184 - that's the max I've seen on my HR anyway.
What's the most important thin with HR? To have a low resting? Or a high max? Or a wise range?

I am 42 years old and the max heart rate is supposed to be 178 (220-age). However, I have pushed it over 180 many times. I can keep my heart rate at 90% of max for 30-60 minutes.
Resting: 49-51
Max: 180+

Age: 26 (in case you cared)
Resting: 50
Max: 187 (I think I've got a little more left to give)
On an hour and 15 minute ride, I'll average 89-90% of that.

Resting: 37
Max: ~178
Max heart rate is insignificant and no indicator of health or performance. Resting heart rate is directly related to fitness and is very significant.

I'm 22, I know it's supposed to be around 200 but it's not.
Resting is 38-40. Max that I've seen is 191.

Also, the true resting heart rate is supposedly that measured immediatly after awakening. You're supposed to sleep with a heart monitor and look at it when you first waken. I think I read that in one of Carmichael's books (Armstrong's personal trainer). I did that once and got 48, but I may have been too groggy to read it correctly so I don't quote it as my resting rate.
Age 65
Max 177 (reached on three occasions)
Resting 58 (after sitting in a chair for a few minutes)

Mine is 42 175 been having a "missing beat" problem at rest periodically, 1 in 4 missed, so when that is happening it is about 30. Did stress test doc says everything is OK. I says, "but doc, I miss beats sometime". Doc says "Isn't happening now". I say "what should I do"? Doc says "I don't know". I says, seems when I take my vitamins regularly, I don't miss beats. Doc says "than do that".

That resting HR was even higher a couple months back. Its coming down nicely as I've dropped 15 pounds the last two months. Starting to get and keep my wind the longer I'm out riding. Hoping to keep it up through the winter with some good base mileage (dry winter! dry winter!)
