High-intensity exercise training decreases heart rate and enhances heart rate variability in obese adolescents.
Practitioners should consider high-intensity exercise for improving cardiovascular health in obese adolescents.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
The current study shows that high‐intensity exercise training is able to decrease heart rate and enhance HRV likely playing a role in improving cardiac autonomic modulation.
Why this rating
Based on randomized trial design.
