Abstract
This study delineates the full range of resting TRV and derived PASP in highly trained athletes. The upper physiologic limit of PASP in endurance athletes may reach 40 mm Hg, in line with the greater increase in stroke volume. This should be considered a “physiologic phenomenon” when evaluating athletes for sports eligibility.
