That one seems to give a pretty low rate. It kept defaulting my max to
162 (from my age), even though my max is 180+. At the 85% rate they show
I am barely breathing and I can ride 162 all day. That one flaw would
make me question anything else they have posted since fitness is not
just between these two ironclad limits postulated by a formula.
