Why the study?
Do different types of training sessions (plyometric, low-intensity running, high-intensity interval running) affect post-exercise autonomic nervous system recovery differently in highly trained runners?
Do different types of training sessions (plyometric, low-intensity running, high-intensity interval running) affect post-exercise autonomic nervous system recovery differently in highly trained runners?
Plyometric and high-intensity interval training sessions cause a similar autonomic nervous system load in highly trained runners, which is significantly different from the load caused by low-intensity training.
Introduction: Heart rate variability (HRV), expressed by the beat-to-beat variation in heart rate, offers a noninvasive indicator of autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity. Measurement of the ANS response is increasingly used to evaluate the effect of training load on the organism.
