The Acute Effect of Zero Gravity Chair and Breathing Exercises on Soccer Players HRV

Year 2023, Volume: 2 Issue: 1, 1 - 10, 30.06.2023

Abstract

This study aims to determine the acute effect of breathing exercises on soccer players’ HRV while lying down on a zero-gravity chair. According to this purpose, 12 soccer players participated in the study. To collect data, Inner Balance HeartMath biofeedback device was used. During the pretest soccer players sat in an upright position and their HRV measurements were taken. After a few minutes, soccer players were asked to lie down on a zero gravity chair inhale in 4 seconds and exhale in 4 seconds (4X4 Breathing Exercise). The results have shown that there is a significant difference between pretest and posttest. The zero-gravity chair and HRV breathing exercises have an acute effect on soccer players’ coherence and autumn nerve system in a positive way.
