High-intensity interval or continuous-moderate exercise: A 24-week pilot trial
Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise May 18, 2018
Locke SR, et al. - A pilot study was undertaken to test moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) adherence 24 weeks following a brief counselling intervention combined with either high-intensity interval training (HIIT) or moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT). For this investigation, people at high risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) were randomized to HIIT or MICT and finished 10 exercise sessions accompanied by a brief 10-minute counselling intervention over a 2-week period. In individuals at high risk of T2D, this pilot intervention was effective in increasing and maintaining, free-living MVPA over a 24-week period. They suggested that speculation that HIIT was inappropriate or unattainable for overweight individuals at high risk of T2D could be unfounded.
