Provision, uptake, adherence, and completion rates for supervised exercise programs (SEPs) intermittent claudication (IC) are low. For patients, 12-week SEPs too time-intensive. A shorter, more time-efficient, 6-week, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) program may be an effective alternative that is acceptable to patients easier deliver. The aim of this study was determine the feasibility ...

The study aimed to evaluate the impact of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on adipose tissue, pancreatic islets and liver in mice fed high-fat diet. C57BL/6 male mice were fed one of two diets: standard chow (Lean group LE) or a high-fat diet (Obese group – OB). After the first 12-weeks, the animals were divided into non-trained (LE-NT and OB-NT), trained groups (LET and OB-T), and start...

Methods Twenty recreationally active women (Mean ± SD; age 24.6 ± 3.9 yrs; height 164.4 ± 6.6 cm; weight 62.7 ± 6.6 kg; %fat 28.2 ± 4.8 %) participated in this randomized crossover, double-blind study. After preliminary body composition and maximal strength testing, each participant completed six exercise sessions, consisting of three exercise modalities: aerobic endurance exercise (AEE; 30 min...

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...

The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to determine the effect of a 14-week high-intensity interval training (HIIT) intervention with weight stability on metabolic flexibility, insulin sensitivity, and cardiorespiratory fitness in sedentary, premenopausal, nondiabetic, overweight/obese African American women. Twenty-eight subjects were allocated to one of two groups: HIIT,...

diabetes is a metabolic disorder specified by hyperglycemia following a defect in insulin secretion, insulin resistance or both. the aim of this study was to examine the effect of high-intensity interval training (hiit) on serum adiponectin levels and insulin resistance of women with type 2 diabetes. for this purpose, 35 overweight women with type 2 diabetes (age range 45-60 years, bmi 25-30 kg...

BACKGROUND Structured exercise training has been proposed as a useful adjunctive therapy for Crohn's disease by improving immune function and psychological health, reducing fatigue and promoting gains in muscle and bone strength. However, the evidence for exercise in Crohn's disease is sparse, with only a handful of small prospective trials [1, 2], with methodological limitations, including the...
