Does smartphone-derived heart rate variability monitoring correlate with training adaptation and running performance in collegiate female soccer players?
A decrease in the coefficient of variation of log-transformed root mean square of successive R-R intervals (Ln rMSSDcv) over 3 weeks correlates with improved running performance, suggesting smartphone-based HRV is useful for monitoring athlete adaptation.
