Brojna klinička istraživanja dokazala su jasne koristi tjelesne aktivnosti za kardiovaskularno, ali i opće zdravlje svakoga čovjeka. Tjelesna aktivnost izaziva fiziološki odgovor organizma koji dovodi do različitih prilagodba pojedinih organskih sustava, a primjer jedne od njih jest i sportsko srce – benigni i reverzibilni odgovor kardiovaskularnog sustava na ponavljanu i intenzivnu tjelesnu aktivnost. Neke bolesti miokarda mogu dijeliti slične elektrokardiografske, ehokardiografske i druge karakteristike sa sportskim srcem. Pravodobno prepoznavanje takvih bolesti ključno je za zaštitu zdravlja svih koji se bave intenzivnijom tjelesnom aktivnosti rekreativno ili profesionalno., Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated obvious benefits of physical activity for cardiovascular, as well as general health of every human being. Physical activity induces a physiological response resulting in different adaptations of individual organ systems. One of such adaptations is the athlete's heart representing a benign and reversible reaction of the cardiovascular system to repeated and intensive physical activity. Some of the myocardial diseases may share electrocardiographic, echocardiographic and other features similar to those of the athlete's heart. Timely recognition of such diseases is crucial to the health of everyone who is engaged in a more intensive physical activity, either recreationally or professionally.
