Exploring Heart Rate Variability and Its Impact on Training and Performance

This chapter delves into the concept of heart rate variability (HRV) and its significance in training, coaching, and overall health. The speakers discuss how HRV reflects the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, serving as an indicator of stress, recovery, and adaptation. They also touch on the role of HRV in tracking and responding to different stressors in athletes, referencing studies to illustrate its practical implications.
