Heart rate variability in sportive elderly: relationship with daily physical activity

Article Abstract:

The influence of long-term lifestyle on HRV in very old adults with regard to their usual physical activity is evaluated since aging is associated with decreased heart rate variability. It is indicated that long-term sportive lifestyle together with increased daily energy expenditure is associated with higher vagal-related HRV indexes than an active but nonsportive way of life.
