The effect of age and gender on heart rate variability after endurance training
Article Abstract:
Research demonstraes that a 12-week endurance-training program leads to a decrease in the resting and submaximal heart rate regardless of age. Data point out that heart rate variability measurements may provide an effective, noninvasive assessment of cardiovascular adaptation to aerobic exercise training as indicated by increases in heart rate variability, total power, and high-frequency power irrespective of age and gender.

Evaluation of autonomic function underlying slow postexercise heart rate recovery
Article Abstract:
Autonomic contributions to heart rate recovery (HRR) are evaluated using time-frequency analysis in a group of individuals demonstrating slow HRR. Attenuated HRR after graded maximal exercise stress test (GXT), assessed by continuous wavelength transform (CWT), is indeed found to be associated with abnormal vagal reactivation and prolonged sympathetic stimulation after termination of maximal exercise.

Ground reaction forces and kinematics in distance running in older-aged men
Article Abstract:
Research indicates that the biomechanics of running is not the same between older- and younger runners in terms of speed, knee flexion, and vertical and anterioposterior forces and impulses. Older-aged runners use larger impact peak force and initial loading rate, indicating that they experience a lossof shock-absorbing capacity leading to lower-extremity injuries.
