2022, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :The athlete's heart has been object of studies over several decades. A large amount of data has been so fat reported describing the determinants and limits of physiological cardiac adaptation to chronic, intense exercise [2,4,13–16]. It is nowadays widely accepted that LVH is related to age, sex, body surface area and type of sport participated [1].
