Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The exercise-induced decreases of RHR were positively related with the pre-interventional RHR and negatively with the average age of the participants. From this, we can conclude that exercise-especially endurance training and yoga-decreases RHR.
Detailed explanation-2: -The rise in heart rate during exercise is considered to be due to the combination of parasympathetic withdrawal and sympathetic activation. The fall in heart rate immediately after exercise is considered to be a function of the reactivation of the parasympathetic nervous system.
