“…Previous research has proposed that the time course of vagal recovery depends primarily on exercise intensity (Arai et al, 1989;Stejskal et al, 2001), and/or cardiorespiratory performance (Hautala et al, 2001;Seiler, Haugen, & Kuffel, 2007). However, exercise duration should also be considered as a factor that influences ANS recovery (Kaikkonen, Hynynen, Mann, Rusko, & Nummela, 2010). A number of studies have focused on ANS recovery in response to distance running e.g.…”

“…Furthermore, as sub-elite referees have less time for training than their elite counterparts, HRV monitoring could be an interesting approach for time economy in training individualisation. HRV has been extensively utilised as a non-invasive tool for the assessment of cardiac autonomic nervous system modulation (Task Force of the European Society of Cardiology and the North American Society of Pacing and Electrophysiology 1996) in the trained state (Leicht et al 2003a;Hautala et al 2009), during the short-term (Kaikkonen et al 2010) and long-term (Hautala et al 2001) post-exercise recovery; and following psychological stressors (Hamer and Steptoe 2007). Given the high physical Mallo et al 2009) and psychological (Boyko et al 2007;Weston et al 2006) demands of soccer refereeing, it is important to assess the impact of soccer matches on cardiac autonomic control (i.e.…”

The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of a soccer match on the cardiac autonomic control of heart rate (HR) in soccer referees. Sixteen Spanish regional and third division referees (11 males: 26 ± 7 years, 74.4 ± 4.1 kg, 178 ± 3 cm, Yo-Yo IR1 ~600-1,560 m; 5 females: 22 ± 3 years, 59.3 ± 4.8 kg, 158 ± 8 cm, Yo-Yo IR1 ~200-520 m) participated with 24-h HR recordings measured with a Polar RS800 during a rest and a match day. Autonomic control of HR was assessed from HR variability (HRV) analysis. Inclusion of a soccer match (92.5% spent at >75% maximum HR) reduced pre-match (12:00-17:00 hours; small to moderate), post-match (19:00-00:00 hours; moderate to almost perfect), and night-time (00:00-05:00 hours; small to moderate) HRV. Various moderate-to-large correlations were detected between resting HRV and the rest-to-match day difference in HRV. The rest-to-match day differences of low and high-frequency bands ratio (LF/HF) and HR in the post-match period were moderately correlated with time spent at different exercise intensities. Yo-Yo IR1 performance was highly correlated with jump capacity and peak lactate, but not with any HRV parameter. These results suggest that a greater resting HRV may allow referees to tolerate stresses during a match day with referees who spent more time at higher intensities during matches exhibiting a greater LF/HF increment in the post-match period. The relationship between match activities, [Formula: see text] and HR recovery kinetics in referees and team sport athletes of different competitive levels remains to be clarified.

“…6,7,39−41 Conversely, exercise duration seems not to affect so much HR recovery dynamics; 5,9 just by increasing total time 4-fold or more we do find a significant change in parasympathetic reactivation. 4 When talking about supra maximal interval protocols, Buchheit et al 1 showed a significant slower parasympathetic reactivation after a Repeated Sprint exercise compared with a continuous one of equivalent net caloric expenditure, concluding that anaerobic metabolism participation rather than energy expenditure modulates the level of post exercise parasympathetic reactivation. A similar depressed post exercise cardiac autonomic response has been reported by other authors using Wingate test 8,10,12,19 and Repeated Shuttle Sprint.…”

IntroductionDuring the last decade, Heart Rate Variability (HRV), analyzed both in time and spectral domains, has been widely used as a noninvasive marker of that ANS regulation of HR dynamics after exercise. Several studies have actually used it to explore post exercise parasympathetic reactivation and evaluate the influence of exercise duration and intensity, 1−9 In this context, the nonlinear approaches have shown to be a way to gain additional information regarding cardiac autonomic modulation after exercise.3,10−12 Unlike time domain and spectral measures, nonlinear methods detect qualitative rather than quantitative changes in HR dynamics.13,14 Fractal analysis, through Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) technique, could be considered as a modification of spectral analysis; but unlike the latter, the former is thought not to be polluted by changes in the external environment,15−17 what makes it especially suitable for assessing HR dynamics in field-based situations. However, only a pair of studies regarding post exercise HRV recovery had previously focused on gender comparison. 18,19 Brown and Brown 18 found no significant differences in any frequency domain HRV index after a VO 2 max test to exhaustion in a trained Master athlete's sample. On the contrary, very recently Mendonca et al. 19 in a non-athletes sample, showed that cardiac autonomic function of women is greater affected by supra maximal exercise than that of men.Concerning autonomic regulation following judo-type efforts, Cottin et al.20 compared a judo combat versus an incremental cycloergometric exercise, but they evaluated the exercise-phase and not the recovery-phase. And very recently, some studies with judokas have shown that HRV and more specifically the non-linear analyses, are suitable to reflect the autonomic impairment following supra maximal efforts, with lower DFA in those judokas who were able to perform better (i.e. more repetitions in a supra maximal test). 2,3However, none of these studies has focused in gender differences regarding HR dynamics and autonomic recovery following judo supra maximal efforts. Even more, little research has been conducted with regard to gender differences in judo performance in an integrative test, with high demands on specific explosive-strength endurance and technical stability under fatigue.We need to deepen on the relationship among specific technical skills and conditional capacities with regard to these HR dynamics during recovery ...
