If I achieved 97% of my mHR on an outdoor ride (going full gas on a hilly segment), does that mean my mHR is actually higher than 220-age?
Well that depends on whether or not 97% of your mHR is more or less than the value you get from 220-age.
If it makes you feel better my mHR (when I gave a shit) was always higher than any formulas. It's also basically meaningless.
