Effects of individualized resistance training prescription with heart rate variability on muscle strength, muscle size and functional performance in older women by Diego Bittencourt, Ramon Martins de Oliveira, Deivid Gomes da Silva, João Guilherme Almeida Bergamasco, Marcelo de Castro Cesar, Daniela Godoi Jacomassi, Júlio Benvenutti Bueno de Camargo, J. Derek Kingsley, Cleiton Augusto Libardi

“…IntroductionThis study aimed to investigate whether individualizing autonomic recovery periods between resistance training (RT) sessions (IND) using heart rate variability (HRV), measured by the root mean square of successive R-R interval differences (RMSSD), would lead to greater and more consistent improvements in muscle strength, muscle mass, and functional performance in older women compared to a fixed recovery protocol (FIX).MethodsTwenty-one older women (age 66.0 ± 5.0 years old) were randomized into two different protocols (IND: n = 11; FIX: n = 10) and completed 7 weeks of RT. …”
