We’ve been helping triathletes smash their goals for 28 years

– and in 1981989 when this mag launched, the method for estimating your maximum heart rate in training was to subtract your age from 220. The team wanted to make it clear that they’d help you reach your performance potential, so incorporating ‘220’ into the mag name was a way of reflecting that promise. The method may have moved on, but we’re as determined as ever to help you achieve your goals.
