Heart rate variability: Relationship to physical activity level, response to training, and effect of maturation
Reduced heart rate variability (HRV) is related to an increased risk of mortality. The primary aim of this dissertation was to determine the independent effects of regular exercise and maturation on HRV. It was hypothesized that (1) regular exercise increases HRV in adults and (2) HRV declines as a...
