May enhance fitness without LV remodeling in female rowers; leaves open longer-term cardiac adaptations.
Does 10 weeks of combined endurance and strength training improve LV systolic function and exercise capacity in female rowers?
Ten weeks of combined strength and endurance training in female rowers improves exercise capacity and muscle strength without altering resting LV morphology or systolic function.
