Compare how the ventilator system of an athlete may differ from that of a sedentary person

Athletes' heart rates tend to be lower than heart rates of sedentary people. A low resting heart rate is generally a sign of good cardiovascular fitness and efficiency. A well-trained athlete may have a normal resting heart rate of only 40 beats per minute, compared with the average heart rate that ranges from 60 to 100 beats a minute, found mainly in the sedentary people.

A study conducted indicated that at the same time as operating at high magnitudes of maximal ventilation, breathlessness-anxiety develops increasingly prominent in athletes. The outcomes propose that ventilatory perception pathways may be a target for better-quality athletic performance in some individuals.
