Left ventricular hypertrophy in athletes [PDF]
European Journal of Echocardiography, 2009 Participation in regular intensive exercise is associated with a modest increase in left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) and cavity size. The magnitude of these physiological changes is predominantly determined by a variety of demographic factors which include age, gender, size, ethnicity, and sporting discipline.

Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy
Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular ImagingLeft ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) can occur as a result of increase in the left ventricular (LV) wall thickness or increase in the LV cavity size, thus leading to increase in the LV mass. Strength training and aerobic exercise lead to physiological LVH,
