Adiposity and physical activity are related to heart rate variability: the African-PREDICT study
(Wiley, 2020)Background Physical inactivity contributes significantly to the development of obesity‐related cardiovascular disease. Adiposity may lead to reduced heart rate variability (HRV), whereas increased physical activity (PA) ... -
Heart rate variability and recovery as predictors of elite, African, male badminton players’ performance levels
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)The aim of this study was to determine whether pre-match, in-match, resting and post-match heart rate variability (HRV) as well as resting and post-match heart rate recovery (HRR) can serve as significant predictors of ... -
Heart rate variability and recovery as predictors of elite, African, male badminton players’ performance levels
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)The aim of this study was to determine whether pre-match, in-match, resting and post-match heart rate variability (HRV) as well as resting and post-match heart rate recovery (HRR) can serve as significant predictors of ... -
Leptin and its relation to autonomic activity, endothelial cell activation and blood pressure in a young black and white population: the African-PREDICT study
(Thieme, 2018)An increasing prevalence of obesity-related hypertension is observed in the youth and may have severe consequences for future cardiovascular disease development. Previous studies portrayed leptin as a potential factor ... -
Relationship between autonomic markers of heart rate and subjective indicators of recovery status in male, elite badminton players
(JSSM, 2016)The primary aim of the study was to determine if heart rate variability (HRV), and heart rate recovery (HRR) are related to several subjective indicators of recovery status (muscle soreness, hydration status, sleep quality ... -
Relationship between heart rate, heart rate variability, heart rate recovery and global positioning system determined match characteristics of male, elite, African badminton players
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)The primary aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), heart rate recovery (HRR) and global positioning system (GPS) determined match characteristics of ...
