Constant-Moderate and High-Intensity Interval Training Have Differential Benefits on Insulin Sensitive Tissues in High-Fat Fed Mice.

ABSTRACT: In a mouse model of diet-induced obesity, this study determined if two exercise prescriptions with equivalent time and distance covered, [constant-moderate endurance (END) and high intensity interval training (HIIT)], exert differential metabolic benefits on insulin sensitive tissues. Male 10 week old C57BL/6 mice were fed a high fat diet (HFD; 45% kcal fat) ad libitum for 10 weeks and for a further 10 weeks they underwent END or HIIT training (3 × 40 min sessions/wk). Untrained HFD and chow-fed mice acted as controls. At 30 weeks of age, mice were sacrificed and quadriceps muscle, subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and liver were excised. Neither END nor HIIT altered body weight or composition in HFD mice. In quadriceps, HFD decreased high-molecular weight adiponectin protein, which was normalized by END and HIIT. In contrast, HIIT but not END reversed the HFD-driven decrease in the adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1). In SAT, both programs tended to decrease collagen VI protein (p = 0.07-0.08) in HFD, whereas only HIIT induced an increase in the mRNA (3-fold vs. HFD untrained) and protein (2-fold vs. HFD untrained) of UCP1. In liver, only END reversed collagen I accumulation seen in HFD untrained mice. Our results suggest that HIIT may promote better systemic metabolic changes, compared to END, which may be the result of the normalization of muscle AdipoR1 and increased UCP1 seen in SAT. However, END was more effective in normalizing liver changes, suggesting differential metabolic effects of END and HIIT in different tissues during obesity.

Project description:Poststroke guidelines recommend moderate-intensity, continuous aerobic training (MCT) to improve aerobic capacity and mobility after stroke. High-intensity interval training (HIT) has been shown to be more effective than MCT among healthy adults and people with heart disease. However, HIT and MCT have not been compared previously among people with stroke.The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and justification for a definitive randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing HIT and MCT in people with chronic stroke.A preliminary RCT was conducted.The study was conducted in a cardiovascular stress laboratory and a rehabilitation research laboratory.Ambulatory people at least 6 months poststroke participated.Both groups trained 25 minutes, 3 times per week, for 4 weeks. The HIT strategy involved 30-second bursts at maximum-tolerated treadmill speed alternated with 30- to 60-second rest periods. The MCT strategy involved continuous treadmill walking at 45% to 50% of heart rate reserve.Measurements included recruitment and attendance statistics, qualitative HIT acceptability, adverse events, and the following blinded outcome variables: peak oxygen uptake, ventilatory threshold, metabolic cost of gait, fractional utilization, fastest treadmill speed, 10-Meter Walk Test, and Six-Minute Walk Test.During the 8-month recruitment period, 26 participants consented to participate. Eighteen participants were enrolled and randomly assigned to either the HIT group (n=13) or the MCT group (n=5). Eleven out of the 13 HIT group participants attended all sessions. Participants reported that HIT was acceptable and no serious adverse events occurred. Standardized effect size estimates between groups were moderate to very large for most outcome measures. Only 30% of treadmill speed gains in the HIT group translated into overground gait speed improvement.The study was not designed to definitively test safety or efficacy.Although further protocol optimization is needed to improve overground translation of treadmill gains, a definitive RCT comparing HIT and MCT appears to be feasible and warranted.
