This study investigates the prevalence and implications of reduced ejection fraction (EF) in elite endurance athletes, finding that approximately 1 in 6 athletes exhibit reduced EF, which is associated with genetic predisposition and increased ventricular ectopy. Despite these findings, no athletes developed symptomatic heart failure or arrhythmias during follow-up, suggesting that reduced EF may be part of the athletic phenotype rather than indicative of cardiac disease. The research highlights the need fo
