Assessment of Maximum Heart Rate Prediction Equations in Adults at Low and High Risk of Cardiovascular Disease
We showed that commonly used equations and the SL model have insufficient accuracy to predict HRmax among adults. The performance of the prediction equations varied considerably according to the population clinical characteristics such as the presence of CVD risk factors or a low aerobic fitness.
