Background: Greater aerobic fitness is associated with improved cardiovascular health. Traditionally high volume (long duration and low intensity) endurance training (ET) has been used to increase aerobic fitness. Sprint interval training (SIT) is a low volume and high intensity form of interval training. Energy for SIT is produced via both the aerobic and anaerobic metabolic pathways. SIT is t...

BACKGROUND The decline in cardiorespiratory fitness and lung function was higher in smokers. Training method could mitigate some of the negative consequences of smoking among smokers unable or unwilling to quit. OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of continuous training on lungs functional capability and cardiorespiratory fitness in smokers. METHODS Fifteen cigarette smokers, 14 hookah smokers...

Aim. To examine the efficacy of a six-month Kung Fu (KF) program on physical fitness in overweight/obese adolescents. Methods. Subjects were randomly assigned to the KF or sham exercise (Tai Chi, TC) control group. Physical measurements in cardiovascular fitness and muscle fitness occurred at baseline and after 6 months of training thrice weekly. Results. Twenty subjects were recruited. One sub...

The purpose of this study was to examine the usefulness of the rating of perceived exertion training load for monitoring changes in several aerobic fitness and neuromuscular performance variables during 9 weeks of soccer training in young professional players. Nineteen male soccer players (20.2 ± 1.9 years) belonging to the same reserve team of a Spanish La Liga Club participated in this study....

BACKGROUND Physical training programmes have been designed for asthmatic subjects with the aim of improving physical fitness, neuromuscular coordination and self-confidence. Habitual physical activity increases physical fitness and lowers ventilation during mild and moderate exercise thereby reducing the likelihood of provoking exercise -induced asthma. Exercise training may also reduce the per...

BACKGROUND Low-volume high-intensity interval training (HIT) appears to be an efficient and practical way to develop physical fitness. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to estimate meta-analysed mean effects of HIT on aerobic power (maximum oxygen consumption [VO(2max)] in an incremental test) and sprint fitness (peak and mean power in a 30-s Wingate test). DATA SOURCES Five databases (PubMed, ME...

H igh-intensity aerobic interval training (HIIT) is a popular strategy for improving cardiorespiratory fitness and health, as well as reducing body fat levels. A standard HIIT protocol involves alternating bouts of both highand low-intensity exercise to increase the amount of high-intensity work performed during an acute bout of training. High-intensity intervals are typically performed above t...
