Download or read book Analysis of Heart Rate Training Responses in Division I Collegiate Athletes written by Maria C. Canino and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New technology continuously develops to assist with enhancing athletic performance. Assessing the physiological responses athletes experience from training is crucial when developing programs to simultaneously optimize performance and improve fitness levels. By combining coaching expertise with scientific technology, coaches can monitor and obtain their athletes' individual objective physiological responses (i.e. heart rates) on the effectiveness of the applied external stimuli or training program(s). PURPOSE: To examine the physical training doses through heart rate monitoring of strength and condition (S&C) sessions compared to a typical game setting in female soccer and basketball collegiate athletes. METHODS: Participants were nine female soccer players [age: 20.5 +/- 0.34 yr., height: 172.2 +/- 1.25 cm, mass: 66.8 +/- 1.72 kg, BMI: 22.6 + 0.34] and nine female basketball players (mean + SD) [age: 20.3 +/- 0.33 yr., height: 178.4 +/- 2.27 cm, mass: 73.3 +/- 3.43 kg, BMI: 22.9 + 0.78] from a NCAA Division I university. Participants wore a heart rate chest strap monitor during the summer S&C training sessions and preseason games. Each subject's height, weight, age-predicted max heart rate, and player position were recorded into Polar Team2 Pro system. After each training session and game, each subjects' data from the transmitter was uploaded for analysis. Data was subsequently analyzed to determine the training load (TL), average calories expended per minute (kcal/min), average heart rate, maximum heart rate, and percent of time spent in each training zone (Z1-Z5) for the selected S&C sessions (T1 and T2) and one pre-season game (T3). RESULTS: One-way ANOVA with repeated measures detected significant differences in the women's soccer TL with post hoc comparisons revealing the TL in T3 (239.1 +/- 112.4) was higher than T1 (147.1 +/- 63.4) and T2 (149.6 +/- 36.4) and percent time in Z3 was lower in T3 (13.7 +/- 2.7) compared to T1 (22.5 +/- 6.5) and T2 (21.7 +/- 8.1). One-way ANOVA with repeated measures detected significant differences in the women's basketball kcal/min, average heart rate and percent of time spent in Z1-Z5. Post hoc comparisons revealed T3 had the lowest values in both kcal/min (9.7 +/- 3.0) and average heart rate (133.8 +/- 16.8). T1 had the greatest amount of time spent in Z4 (25.9 +/- 10.0) and Z5 (32.8 +/- 21.1) and the least amount of time spent in Z1 (13.0 +/- 22.1) and Z2 (12.9 +/- 9.0). T2 had the highest percent time spent in Z2 (12.9 +/- 9.0) and Z3 (20.1 +/- 6.3). T3 had the greatest percent time spent in Z1 (13.0 +/- 22.1) and the least amount of time spent in Z3 (11.3 +/- 6.3) and Z4 (15.2 +/- 7.1). CONCLUSION: Summer strength and conditioning sessions for soccer produced physiological responses that were relatively similar to the responses experienced in preseason games. However, summer strength and conditioning sessions for basketball had similar training loads to preseason games but it did not replicate the physiological responses in preseason games. Heart rate monitoring systems may be useful in helping strength and conditioning coaches and the sport coaches to quantify physiological responses to game and practice sessions in their athletes.

Book excerpt: This paper explores research on the autonomic nervous system (ANS), particularly the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS), and its relation to injury. Heart rate variability (HRV), or the beat-to-beat alterations of an individual's heart rate can quantify the body's physiologic response to chronic physical activity. High Frequency (HF) and low frequency (LF) heart rate variability, as well as , pre-ejection period (PEP) of the heart, and Root Mean Square of the Standard Deviation (RMSSD) were recorded and analyzed to calculate heart rate variability. The hypothesis tested was that physically active individuals would have higher parasympathetic and lower sympathetic activation at rest, which would be associated with a reduced risk for injury during physical exercise. Measurement instruments included the Vivometrics LifeShirt© ambulatory physiologic monitoring system and VivoLogic Software (Version 3.2) for the determination of heart rate variability. Data collection equipment was worn by each subject at rest in a controlled environment. The results demonstrated that physically active individuals participating in athletics and performing arts, with lower resting values of RMSSD, reported a significantly higher number of injuries. RMSSD explained 3.8% of the variance in injury occurrence. The application of this finding has yet to be investigated, however is suggestive of at least a minor role of heart rate variability in injury incidence. The use of heart rate variability monitoring during athletic training and competition has not been well elucidated. Heart rate variability monitors are non-invasive, and with advances in technology, can be worn by athletes easily, without interference of athletic ability. Further research is needed and should be geared toward the investigation of the utility of heart rate variability assessment in monitoring the physiologic function in athletes. Heart rate variability assessment may provide information regarding injury risk.

Download or read book Monitoring Heart Rate Variability in Elite College Football Players Throughout the Preparatory and Competitive Season written by Andrew A. Flatt and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vagally-mediated heart rate variability (lnRMSSD) reflects cardiac-parasympathetic modulation and may be a useful marker for reflecting recovery status and training adaptation in football players. Three studies were conducted to evaluate lnRMSSD responses to training based on playing position (SKILL, MID-SKILL and LINEMEN) among an elite college football team during three distinct phases of training including the off-season (Spring camp), preseason camp and the in-season competitive period. The first study evaluated daily and chronic lnRMSSD responses to training during Spring camp. Following ~20 h of recovery from a football practice, a significant reduction in lnRMSSD for LINEMEN was observed, while lnRMSSD for SKILL and MID-SKILL returned to near or within baseline values. Individual changes in lnRMSSD from baseline to 20 h post-training were significantly related to body mass with greater lnRMSSD reductions occurring among heavier players and vice versa. Chronic responses showed that individual coefficient of variation of lnRMSSD derived from the entire 4-week Spring camp was significantly inversely related to individual mean training load after adjusting for body mass. The second study evaluated daily lnRMSSD and perceived wellness responses to a 13-day intensive preseason training camp in hot and humid conditions. After the first few days of training, decrements in lnWellness and increases in lnRMSSD, peaking on Day 12 following a day of passive rest among SKILL and LINEMEN were observed. The peak in lnRMSSD was associated with the return of lnWellness to Day 1 values. MID-SKILL showed no meaningful changes in lnRMSSD while their lnWellness remained chronically suppressed throughout the duration of preseason camp. The third study evaluated the daily lnRMSSD response to the most intense training session of the week across three separate weeks during the first month of the competitive season. Compared to resting values, lnRMSSD ~20 h following training was significantly reduced for LINEMEN and MID-SKILL but not for SKILL. The individual change in lnRMSSD from rest to 20 h post training was significantly related to both body mass and training load. In conclusion, the lnRMSSD response to training among elite football players depends on playing position, body mass, training load and training phase. Subjects with greater body mass and lower mean training loads tend to show the largest reductions in lnRMSSD while subjects with lower body mass and higher mean training loads tend to show smaller daily changes in lnRMSSD. While these lnRMSSD responses to training were consistent during Spring camp and during the early in-season competitive phase, this trend was obscured during preseason training in hot and humid conditions. Rather than decreasing with accumulated fatigue, lnRMSSD tended to increase. Thus, heat acclimatization responses during preseason camp may prevent typical training-induced reductions in lnRMSSD observed during Spring camp and in-season.

Download or read book Investigating the Effects of Endurance Training on Heart Rate Variability in Female Simmer Athletes written by Joshua G. Beck and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: It is important for elite endurance athletes to have practical and reliable means of measuring fatigue throughout their training. Variations in Autonomic Nervous System activity (ANS) may provide an effective marker of fatigue and of recovery. ANS control of heart rate is well known to be affected by exercise training, and those adaptations can be determined using measures of heart rate variability (HRV). Previous research has examined the effect of training on HRV and ANS control of heart rate in males, there is a lack of any comprehensive studies that address adaptations in female athletes. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in HRV and ANS fluctuations in female swimmer athletes throughout an entire collegiate swim season. 9 Division I female swimmers (Age: 20.6±1.01) were used to determine HRV at three different points in their competitive training: pre-season, mid-season, and post-season. During each testing session, HRV was measured both at rest and during a maximal 400 yd freestyle swim. Heart rate values were determined using PolarTM heart rate monitors, and the HRV analyses was conducted using Kubios 2.0 HRV analysis software. Global ANS balance was shown to significantly shift towards Sympathetic (SNS) predominance during the mid-season testing and significantly shift towards parasympathetic (PNS) predominance during post-season testing. HRV analysis appears to be an appropriate tool to monitor the effects of physical training loads on performance and fitness in female athletes, and it can be used to help identify and prevent overtraining states.

Download or read book Recovery and Stress in Sport written by Michael Kellmann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Balancing training, stress, and recovery is essential for achieving optimal performance. The performance of professional athletes can be severely compromised by overtraining, injuries, prolonged periods of competition, or even life events outside their sporting lives. The current recovery-stress state depends on preceding stress and recovery activities, but through simultaneous assessment of stress and recovery, a differentiated picture can be provided. This manual includes two measurement instruments to gauge individual recovery, enabling both athletes and coaches to better understand the often-unconscious processes that impinge upon peak performance, and to monitor the physical, mental, emotional, mental, and overall recovery-stress state before and after training. The Acute Recovery and Stress Scale (ARSS) and the Short Recovery and Stress Scale (SRSS) are instruments that systematically enlighten the recovery-stress states of athletes. Through utilization of the ARSS and the SRSS, athletes and coaches can better understand the importance of daily activities, including how they can relate to stress/recovery and the direct impact on athletic performance. In addition to the instruments themselves, both of which are simple and easy to use, the manual also discusses their development, their basis in theory, and case studies showcasing their usage. The ARSS and the SRSS provide important information regarding the current recovery-stress state during the process of training, and are essential tools for coaches, sport scientists, sport psychologists, and athletes alike.
