Does an 18-week periodized strength training program affect heart rate variability in a collegiate athlete?
In a single collegiate athlete, variations in total volume during resistance training were strongly correlated with changes in the coefficient of variation of heart rate variability.
Holmes et al. (2018) studied this question.
