The effect of body weight on the echocardiographic variables of elite Cuban weightlifters was examined. They displayed significant variations in left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, left ventricular posterior wall thickness in diastole, and septal wall thickness in diastole, among others, in relation to their body weight. Left ventricular mass, stroke volume, and cardiac output were also influenced by body weight, although these differences were mitigated when adjusted for body surface area. Most weightlifters maintained an h/r index within the functional anaerobic range, and left ventricular geometry was primarily concentric remodeling or normal. These findings emphasize the significance of body weight in echocardiographic measurements, with clinical implications and implications for medical monitoring. Cardiovascular adaptation appeared to be healthy and suitable for the demands of weightlifting training.
