Summary: The study compared the impact of short-term high intensity interval training (HIIT) and traditional moderate intensity continuous training (MICT) on adolescent soccer players, finding that HIIT effectively improved cardiorespiratory fitness and anaerobic power while MICT improved muscle endurance. Both training methods have their own benefits and could be considered in a time-efficient training strategy.

Summary: This study examined the effects of high-intensity intermittent training (HIIT) programs with varying intensities on metabolic, hormonal, and inflammatory markers in young men. The results showed that training at 110% of maximal aerobic velocity (MAV) was more effective in improving markers such as glucose, cortisol, and IL-6 at rest, at the end of exercise, and during recovery compared to training at 100% MAV.

Summary: Obesity is a global and rising pandemic that increases the risk of cardiac remodeling and disease. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has shown promising outcomes in improving cardiometabolic health in overweight or obese individuals. This review aims to discuss the mechanisms through which HIIT improves cardiac impairment in obesity to develop effective treatments for obesity management. HIIT has been shown to ameliorate obesity-induced cardiac remodeling through various mechanisms, including adipose distribution, energy metabolism, inflammatory response, insulin resistance, and related risk profiles. However, more research is needed to determine the long-term effects and safety of HIIT in obesity-induced cardiac injury and disease before it can be widely adopted.

Summary: This systematic review summarizes the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on physical performance in female team sports athletes. The results indicate that HIIT has significant improvements on maximal oxygen uptake, repeated sprint ability, change of direction speed, speed, and explosive strength in female team sports athletes.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the acute effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and sprint interval training (SIT) on resistance training (RT) performance and their combined effect on lower-body neuromuscular capacities. The results showed that SIT had a greater impact on RT quality and F-0 capacity compared to long-interval HIIT.

Summary: Progressive resistance training (PRT), high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and their combination (COMB) all improve cardiometabolic health in older adults. These training methods can reduce body mass index, body fat percentage, improve aerobic capacity, and enhance levels of LDL and blood glucose.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of preoperative high-intensity strength training combined with balance training on knee function in end-stage knee osteoarthritis patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. The results showed that preoperative training significantly improved knee strength, balance, and functional scores. Preoperative high-intensity strength training combined with balance training has a positive impact on early outcomes in patients with end-stage knee osteoarthritis.

Summary: In this study, a systematic review was conducted to examine the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in the entire study population. The results showed that all three HIIT modalities (HIIT-normal mixed, HIIT-long running, and HIIT-short cycling) significantly improved CRF.

Summary: The study found that high-intensity resistance training (HIRT) significantly improves aerobic capacity, sprint speed, repeated sprint ability, and change-of-direction in young male soccer players. Combined with regular field-based practice, HIRT can also adjust hormone and antioxidant levels, providing significant benefits to physical fitness development.

Summary: This study compared the effects of 100- and 200-m interval training in swimming on temporal, perceptual, and physiological responses. The results showed that there were no significant differences in oxygen uptake, blood lactate, and perceived exertion between the two protocols. Both protocols were effective for aerobic power enhancement, but swimmers perceived the 100-m interval training as less difficult than the 200-m training.

Summary: This study evaluated the exercise intervention focused on high-intensity interval training in lung cancer survivors, showing a beneficial effect of HIIT in improving cardiorespiratory fitness, especially in early stages of lung cancer patients. However, due to limitations such as the small number of studies and heterogeneity in patient stages and subtypes, caution should be taken when interpreting the conclusions.

Summary: This study aims to assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of low-volume high-intensity interval training (HIIT) compared with moderate-intensity steady-state (MISS) exercise training in patients with coronary artery disease. The results showed that low-volume HIIT improved cardiorespiratory fitness more than MISS and had a higher safety profile. Therefore, low-volume HIIT can be considered as an important adjunct or alternative to MISS in cardiac rehabilitation programs.
