Q: i started doing cardio 3 months ago. my maximum heart rate then was 182. i reached recently 191, without feeling dizzy or tired, is this dangerous?

: The maximum DESIRED cardiac rate during exercise follows a formula. 220-age= maximum desired rate. Here that would be 182. To go higher can be tolerated based on individual health factors, but this guideline is designed to be a target for good cardio workouts.
