    Study Shows Sport Type Alone Does Not Reliably Predict an Athlete's Heart The type of sport an athlete practices does not reliably predict what a healthy athlete’s heart should look like. New research from Amsterdam UMC shows that the long-standing distinction between a “strength-sport heart” and an “endurance-sport heart” is far less clear than previously assumed. The findings challenge assumptions embedded in international guidelines and highlight the need for a more personalised approach to assessing the athlete’s heart.
