Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Exercise intervention program including HIIT, MICT and Stretching (Control) group :
The VO2max of all subjects are measured one week before the experiment. HIIT program: 20 minutes exercise of HIIT (1min of 100% VO2max and 1min of 50% VO2max alternately) and 10 minutes of warm-up and relaxation.
MICT program: 20 minutes exercise of 70-75% VO2max and 10 minutes of warm-up and relaxation.
Stretching control group: 30 minutes of stretching, posture adjustment and rehabilitation courses taught by professional therapists.

High intensity intermittent training
HIIT exercise program: 20 minutes HIIT exercise (1min 100% VO2max and 1min 50% VO2max alternately), and warm-up and relaxation before and after exercise for 10 minutes.
Exercise
Two types of exercise intervention and control group
HIIT with pollution reduction
HIIT program: 20 minutes HIIT exercise (1min 100% VO2max and 1min 50% VO2max alternately), and warm-up and relaxation before and after exercise for 10 minutes; Environmental pollution intervention program: air purification system is used order to reduce the PM2.5 and PM10.
