Heart rate (HR) is crucial for assessing exercise intensity, and the study aimed to create reference curves for Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) and Resting Heart Rate (RHR) specifically for Tunisian adolescent footballers aged 11 to 18.
A sample of 801 players was analyzed, revealing that both MHR and RHR decrease with age, with median values ranging from 208.64 bpm at age 11 to 196.93 bpm at age 18 for MHR, and 73.86 bpm to 63.64 bpm for RHR.
The study developed a prediction equation for MHR (MHR = 225.08 - 1.55 X Age), which was found

- Sofiane Amara's recent research focuses on cardiovascular health metrics, specifically resting and maximum heart rates in young athletes, particularly Tunisian soccer players.
- The study aims to provide normative data for heart rates which can serve as a benchmark for assessing the physical fitness of adolescent footballers in Tunisia.
- Findings include the establishment of reference curves for both maximum and resting heart rates and the development of a prediction equation, enhancing evaluation techniques for exercise intensity among young athletes.*
