Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is an effective tool to improve cardiovascular fitness and maximal anaerobic power. Different methods of HIIT have been studied but the effect of a maximal effort cycling and very short exercise time (i.e., 4-s) with short recovery time (15-30 s) and a high number of repetitions (i.e., 30 bouts) is unknown.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The investigators examined the effects of training at maximal anaerobic power during cycling (PC) on maximal anaerobic power, peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak), and total blood volume in 11 young healthy individuals (age: 21.3±0.5 y) (6 men, 5 women). Methods: Participants trained three times a week for eight weeks performing a PC program consisting of 30 bouts of 4-s at an all-out intensity (i.e., 2 minutes of exercise per session). The cardiovascular stress progressively increased over the weeks by decreasing the recovery time between sprints (30 to 24 to 15-s) and thus session time decreased from 17 to \< 10 min.

4-s sprint inertial load training

Participants trained three times a week for eight weeks following the training program consisting of 30 bouts of 4s all-out cycling on an inertial-load ergometer with progressively decreasing recovery time (30 to 24 to 15s).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

4-s sprint inertial load training

Intervention Type OTHER

A program employing 30 bouts of 4s inertial load sprint training with progressively reduced recovery time (30 to 15 s) between sprints is effective for improving blood volume, VO2peak and maximal power.
