Potential parallels between athletic training and HF suggest tailored isometric exercise assessment; leaves open prospective outcome trials.
How do muscle fiber type, muscle mass, and training status modify the cardiovascular response to isometric exercise?
Muscle fiber type, mass, and training status modify peripheral afferent feedback during isometric exercise, with potential parallels between athletic training and chronic heart failure pathophysiology.
Fisher et al. (2004) studied this question.
