From: Heart rate and cardiac autonomic responses to concomitant deep breathing, hand grip exercise, and circulatory occlusion in healthy young adult men and women

Fig. 1

Effect of deep breathing (DB), DB + hand grip (DB + HG) and DB + HG + circulatory occlusion (DB + HG + OC) on heart rate response. A Representative HR response during DB, DB + HG, and DB + HG + OC from one man and one woman. Note that the decrease of HR during recovery period was more pronounced in women than men. B Summary results of HR response during the different interventions in men. Note that HR during the recovery period 3 (post DB + HG + OC) was significantly different compared to the Baseline period. C Summary results of HR response during the different maneuvers in women. Note that the HR during recovery period 2 (DB + HG) and 3 (post DB + HG + OC) were significantly different compared to the Baseline period. Data analyzed by one-way ANOVA, followed by Holm-Sidak post hoc. *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01
