Overview
Cardiac readaptation aims to mitigate cardiovascular risks and enhance the quality of life among coronary patients. Our research laboratory has an international expertise in training optimization in top-athletes and a previous study has demonstrated the efficacy of optimizing cardiac rehabilitation through the power-force-velocity profile (PFVP). The findings exhibited significant improvements in aerobic capacity, muscular strength, and cardiovascular parameters among patients who were trained based on their PFVP. Guided training utilizing heart rate variability (HRV) is also garnering increasing interest as a means to optimize training load and promote recovery
Description
Our study aims to evaluate the application of HRV in regulating training load based on fatigue levels in cardiac rehabilitation patients utilizing the PFVP framework.
