Abstract
Ten recreational runners and squash players were monitored with telemetry to determine their heart rate response to the two activities. The authors found that even though squash is a discontinuous exercise, the mean heart rate intensity in the squash sessions was very similar to the mean heart rate intensity while running. Therefore, health professionals can indicate that squash play with a partner of equal ability and fitness level has aerobic benefits similar to running. Verf.-Referat
