Introduction: The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of high intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate continuous training on plasma apelin concentrations and insulin resistance in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes. 39 elderly males and females were randomly divided into three groups: high intensity interval training (HIGH), moderate continuous training (CONT) and control...

Introdution: Physical training causes functional and morphological changes in myocardium in response to regulatory adaptations same as Phosphatidilinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) changes. Present study aimed to experimentally investigate the effects of endurance and high intensity interval training on PI3K, structure and function of heart. Methods:  24 adultmale rats (weight 221.6 ± 11.4 grams) divid...

Background and Objectives: Considering the significance of mitochondrial biogenesis in physiological processes and the role of antioxidants thereof, the effect of saffron supplement on mitochondrial biogenesis with regard to high-intensity training has not be investigated so far. Therefore, the current study aims to explore the effect of eight weeks of sprint interval training with consuming sa...

Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the interactive effect of interval training and ethanol extract of Adiantum Capillus Veneris on the levels of metallothionein in lung male rats. Methods: 25 Male Wister rats three weeks with an average weight of 68 ± 9g after two weeks the familiar with the environment were randomly divided into five groups; 6-week control, 9-week control,...

Background: The purpose of this study is to the comparison of the effect of 12 weeks of sprint training and concurrent aerobic and strength training on high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and insulin resistance in women with diabetes mellitus (T2DM) Methods: 52 overweight female type 2 diabetic patients (age; 4...

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic abnormality associated with neuropathy, kidney complications, coronary artery disease and peripheral arteries, arteriosclerosis, hypertension and systemic inflammation. The use of high intensity interval training and progressive resistance training  to treat metabolic disorders such as diabetes which blood  glucose and insulin tolerance has an impor...

Abstract: Background: Hear rate turbulence, Disturbances in Vagal activity and reduced heart rate variability (HRV) is observed in individuals after coronary artery bypass grafting. Exercise training is recommended to improve these failures. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of interval exercise training on heart rate recovery (HRR) and heart rate variability af...
