Our aim was to examine the effects of seven high-intensity aerobic interval training (HIIT) sessions over 2 wk on skeletal muscle fuel content, mitochondrial enzyme activities, fatty acid transport proteins, peak O(2) consumption (Vo(2 peak)), and whole body metabolic, hormonal, and cardiovascular responses to exercise. Eight women (22.1 +/- 0.2 yr old, 65.0 +/- 2.2 kg body wt, 2.36 +/- 0.24 l/...

Lifestyle interventions incorporating both diet and exercise strategies remain cornerstone therapies for treating metabolic disease. Carbohydrate-restriction and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) have independently been shown to improve cardiovascular and metabolic health. Carbohydrate-restriction reduces postprandial hyperglycemia, thereby limiting potential deleterious metabolic and car...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of implementing motor imagery (MI) during specific tennis high intensity intermittent training (HIIT) sessions on groundstroke performance in young elite tennis players. Stroke accuracy and ball velocity of forehand and backhand drives were evaluated in ten young tennis players, immediately before and after having randomly performed two HIIT ...

The aim of this meta-analysis was to quantify the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on markers of glucose regulation and insulin resistance compared with control conditions (CON) or continuous training (CT). Databases were searched for HIIT interventions based upon the inclusion criteria: training ≥2 weeks, adult participants and outcome measurements that included insulin resis...

OBJECTIVE Endurance exercise training reduces insulin resistance, adipose tissue inflammation and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), an effect often associated with modest weight loss. Recent studies have indicated that high-intensity interval training (HIIT) lowers blood glucose in individuals with type 2 diabetes independently of weight loss; however, the organs affected and mechanism...

The majority of CKD-related complications stem from cardiovascular pathologies such as hypertension. To help reduce cardiovascular complications, aerobic exercise is often prescribed. Emerging evidence suggests high intensity interval training (HIIT) may be more beneficial than traditional aerobic exercise. However, appraisals of varying forms of aerobic exercise, along with descriptions of mec...

زمینه و هدف: افزایش عوامل التهابی متعاقب چاقی از دلایل اصلی مرگ‌ومیر است. اگرچه نقش تمرینات ورزشی، محدودیت کالریک مکمل‌های ضداکسایشی در این گزارش شده است، اثر همزمان هر سه مداخله مورد توجه پژوهشگران زیادی ازاین‌رو هدف پژوهش حاضر بررسی هشت هفته تمرین تناوبی شدید، کالری مکمل اسپرولینا بر بافت قلب موش‌های صحرایی تحت رژیم غذای پرچرب بود.مواد روش‌ها: 45 سر موش نر چاق‌شده با غذایی (60 درصد چربی، 20 پ...

This study aimed to determine whether 2 wk of high-intensity intermittent training (HIIT) altered inflammatory status in plasma and adipose tissue in overweight and obese males. Twelve participants [mean (SD): age 23.7 (5.2) yr, body mass 91.0 (8.0) kg, body mass index 29.1 (3.1) kg/m(2)] undertook six HIIT sessions over 2 wk. Resting blood and subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue samples were...

High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is frequently used in sports training. The effects on cardiorespiratory and muscle systems have led scientists to consider its application in the field of cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this review is to report the effects and interest of HIIT in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart failure (HF), as well as in persons with high...

EXERCISE IS AN ESTABLISHED therapeutic adjunct in the management of several chronic diseases. Traditionally, the form of exercise most commonly prescribed by clinicians is continuous moderate-to-vigorous-intensity exercise that can be sustained for 20–60 min. This is consistent with current US public health guidelines recommending that adults accumulate at least 150 min/wk of moderate-intensity...
