A question on heart rates,as a runner i know the basics of heart rate monitering having used one on and off for 10 years ,when i run outside or on treadmill i know roughly what the rates will be.however since i started cycling semi seriously 6 months ago i have noticed a problem.When i go out on my bike everything is ok 130-150 steady pace up to 183 to THE MAST however on a turbo trainer for an hours ride at various resistances i struggle to get over 125 and usually ave 105ish for the whole ride. The effort is there as i can come off it totally knackered and soaked in sweat even with a fan in my face. Any ideas? Danny.
