Observational study examines exercise dose-response using cardiac autonomic activity in female athletes, highlighting exercise impact.

Cardiac autonomic activity, particularly heart rate variability, shows greater sensitivity to exercise stress.
The study measured training load and high-intensity activity over a competitive season with 21 female players.
A significant correlation was found between heart rate variability and training load, indicating exercise impact.
Resting heart rate responses were less sensitive to exercise load, underscoring the importance of heart rate variability.

Peterson et al. (2025) studied this question.
