Question

Compared to an average person, what changes will you see in the Heart of a World Class Distance (Endurance) athlete? Address Resting Heart Rate, Resting Blood Pressure, Pulse Presure, Rate Recovery, and Heart Mass in your response.

Answer 1

why? is it for a test or what? athletes generally have lower heart rates, lower blood pressures, pulse pressure should't be that much different, rate recovery is faster, heart mass is probably larger since the heart is worked more. There is some evidance of certain runners heart being damaged fro endurance running.
