CARDIOVASCULAR RESPONSE OF ATHLETES UNDER DIFFERENT TRAINING CONDITIONS

RESPOSTA CARDIOVASCULAR DE ATLETAS EM DIFERENTES CONDIÇÕES DE TREINAMENTO

RESPUESTA CARDIOVASCULAR DE ATLETAS EN DIFERENTES CONDICIONES DE ENTRENAMIENTO

ABSTRACT

Introduction:

Improving cardiovascular function is one of the main training goals of many sports.

Objective:

To understand the characteristics of the cardiovascular response of athletes under different training conditions.

Methods:

Thirty male basketball students were enrolled. The subjects were divided into A and B groups according to their years of training, with 15 students in each group. Exercise fatigue tests were performed, starting at a low intensity and gradually increasing the load to a relatively high degree of fatigue.

Results:

The RMSSD value was 42.82±31.41ms in group A and 46.48±35.26ms in group B undera low fatigue state. The LF/HF value of the athletes in group A was 2.86±1.47 and the LF/HF value of the athletes in group B was 2.94±1.68. The RMSSD value was 40.78±31.17ms and 32.37±36.42ms for groups A and B, respectively, undera high fatigue state.

Conclusions:

Athletes with more years of training can mobilize more cardiac reserves to meet the increase in exercise load in a fatigue state and have better autonomic nervous regulation in the process of reaching a higher degree of fatigue state. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.
