Active Comparator
HIIT group
SIT group
The HIIT modality consisted of 30-40 minutes (min) of steady-state, high-intensity training 3 d/wk on a stationary bicycle at the target heart rate (HR) range equivalent to 85% to 95% of the individual's maximum oxygen consumption rate (VO2max). Exercise will be performed at three sessions per week. All sessions will be supervised by an exercise physiologist during 6-weeks.
The SIT modality consisted of 6 to 10 repetitions of a 30 s segment of all-out exercise interspersed with 2 min of recovery, 3 d/wk on a stationary bicycle at the target heart rate (HR) range equivalent to 90% to 95% of the individual's maximum oxygen consumption rate (VO2max).
