Fifteen highly trained male collegiate long-distance runners participated in a randomized, double-blind crossover study. Participants completed two 30 km runs (30k-RUN) during a 10-day training camp. After each run, they wore either magnetic (MAG) or non-magnetic control (CTRL) garments. Sleep quality and heart rate variability (HRV) were assessed using a wrist-worn device before and after each 30k-RUN. Wearing MAG garments post-30k-RUN resulted in significantly longer deep sleep duration compared to CTRL. HRV analysis revealed that the MAG condition led to a significantly higher root mean square of successive RR interval differences and high-frequency power, indicating enhanced parasympathetic activity. The low-frequency to high-frequency ratio was significantly lower in MAG than in CTRL. Perceived recovery scores were significantly higher in MAG than in CTRL. The findings of this study suggest that wearing magnetic garments following high-intensity endurance running may promote parasympathetic dominance and improve sleep quality in male long-distance runners. These findings indicate that magnetic garments may be a practical method for enhancing recovery in athletes following intense training.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s24216820","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,23]],"date-time":"2024-10-23T12:04:22Z","timestamp":1729685062000},"page":"6820","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Magnetic Garments Promote Parasympathetic Dominance and Improve Sleep Quality in Male Long-Distance Runners Following a 30 km Run"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Ayaka","family":"Nobue","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medical Science Technology, Morinomiya University of Medical Sciences, Osaka 559-8611, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kanae","family":"Sano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health and Well-Being, Kansai University, Osaka 590-8515, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5448-4050","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Masaki","family":"Ishikawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School of Sport and Exercise Sciences, Osaka University of Health and Sport Sciences, Osaka 590-0459, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Dupuy, O., Douzi, W., Theurot, D., Bosquet, L., and Dugu\u00e9, B.
