    question on Target Heart rate

    At 170, I feel pretty good, just breathing deeply, at 240 I am dying and dont think I can do it a second longer.(well maybe not dying but you know what i mean) I had to fudge on the last interval, just no energy left. I am just using a 6 second count, I dont have a monitor
