Dumb as this may seem, I gauge my "heart" fitness by how I can cycle certain hills at certain % grades continuously and onward for awhile without feeling pooped out.
Plus know my weight (vaguely since I weigh myself um... 1-3 times per month. I can see the bathroom scale less than 10 ft. from where I am sitting now at the computer.) and how my clothing fits on me.
'Course it helps that I know how much annual approx. cycling mileage I did too. I probably sound as if I don't care about my health, but would just use other indicators to help myself long term.
