• High heart rate while exercising. Should I be concerned?

My heart rate feels like it goes really high when I exercise. I don't think it's normal. I know that your heart rate is supposed to increase while exercising but this is too high. Should I be concerned?

Maximum heart rate is calculated as 220-your current age so if you are 40 years old your predicated maximum heart rate is 220-40=180 beat-per-minute and most people would reach 85% of their maximum heart rate with no issue and health people can reach 100% of that as well.
