By tracking how arterial stiffness evolves over time, athletes and coaches can assess how the body is responding to cumulative training loads
The short-term changes in PWV and heart rate during a single high-intensity session captures the athlete's acute vascular response, pinpointing peak arterial stress and how quickly the body begins to recover.
PWV will uncover imbalances in vascular load. For runners, cyclists, and field athletes, asymmetry in arterial stiffness can point to overuse, poor biomechanics, or localized fatigue.
Our Performance timeline offers a high-level overview of how arterial stiffness changes in response to daily training and recovery.
