Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The purpose of this work was to assess the impact on the students’ functional fitness of a one academic year student health-enhancing program based on equipping students with theoretical and methodological knowledge which allows them to analyze the dynamics of their own functional state and interpret digital feedback received from heart rate monitors. Studies have proven that receiving timely feedback of heart rate during the implementation of the training program, is a promising direction to enhance students functional fitness. The obtained research data can help to better understand how providing digital feedback during exercise can help improve student health and self-management skills that are important for students when planning independent physical activity programs.
