Salutary effects of high-intensity interval training in persons with elevated cardiovascular risk.

ABSTRACT: Although moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) has been the traditional model for aerobic exercise training for over four decades, a growing body of literature has demonstrated equal if not greater improvement in aerobic capacity and similar beneficial effects on body composition, glucose metabolism, blood pressure, and quality of life from high-intensity interval training (HIIT). An advantage of HIIT over MICT is the shorter time required to perform the same amount of energy expenditure. The current brief review summarizes the effects of HIIT on peak aerobic capacity and cardiovascular risk factors in healthy adults and those with various cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease, chronic heart failure, and post heart transplantation.

Project description:Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBO2) has been proposed as a pre-conditioning method to enhance exercise performance. Most prior studies testing this effect have been limited by inadequate methodologies. Its potential efficacy and mechanism of action remain unknown. We hypothesized that HBO2 could enhance aerobic capacity by inducing mitochondrial biogenesis via redox signaling in skeletal muscle. HBO2 was administered in combination with high-intensity interval training (HIIT), a potent redox stimulus known to induce mitochondrial biogenesis. Aerobic capacity was tested during acute hypobaric hypoxia seeking to shift the limiting site of whole body V̇O2 from convection to diffusion, more closely isolating any effect of improved oxidative capacity. Healthy volunteers were screened with sea-level (SL) V̇O2peak testing. Seventeen subjects were enrolled (10 men, 7 women, ages 26.5±1.3 years, BMI 24.6±0.6 kg m-2, V̇O2peak SL = 43.4±2.1). Each completed 6 HIIT sessions over 2 weeks randomized to breathing normobaric air, "HIIT+Air" (PiO2 = 0.21 ATM) or HBO2 (PiO2 = 1.4 ATM) during training, "HIIT+HBO2" group. Training workloads were individualized based on V̇O2peak SL test. Vastus Lateralis (VL) muscle biopsies were performed before and after HIIT in both groups. Baseline and post-training V̇O2peak tests were conducted in a hypobaric chamber at PiO2 = 0.12 ATM. HIIT significantly increased V̇O2peak in both groups: HIIT+HBO2 31.4±1.5 to 35.2±1.2 ml kg-1·min-1 and HIIT+Air 29.0±3.1 to 33.2±2.5 ml kg-1·min-1 (p = 0.005) without an additional effect of HBO2 (p = 0.9 for interaction of HIIT x HBO2). Subjects randomized to HIIT+HBO2 displayed higher skeletal muscle mRNA levels of PPARGC1A, a regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis, and HK2 and SLC2A4, regulators of glucose utilization and storage. All other tested markers of mitochondrial biogenesis showed no additional effect of HBO2 to HIIT. When combined with HIIT, short-term modest HBO2 (1.4 ATA) has does not increase whole-body V̇O2peak during acute hypobaric hypoxia.

Project description:Background: Exercise training improves endothelial function in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, the influence of training variables remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT), compared to moderate intensity training (MIT) and other exercise modalities (i.e., resistance and combined exercise), on endothelial function, assessed by arterial flow-mediated dilation (FMD) or endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), in patients with CVD. Secondly, we investigated the influence of other training variables (i.e., HIIT protocol). Methods: The PICOS strategy was used to identify randomised and non-randomised studies comparing the effect of HIIT and other exercise modalities (e.g., MIT) on endothelial function in patients with CVD. Electronic searches were carried out in Pubmed, Embase, and Web of Science up to November 2022. The TESTEX scale was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the included studies. Random-effects models of between-group mean difference (MD) were estimated. A positive MD indicated an effect in favour of HIIT. Heterogeneity analyses were performed by the chi-square test and I 2 index. Subgroup analyses evaluated the influence of potential moderator variables. Results: Fourteen studies (13; 92.9% randomised) were included. Most of the studies trained 3 days a week for 12 weeks and performed long HIIT. No statistically significant differences were found between HIIT and MIT for improving brachial FMD in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) (8 studies; MD+ = 0.91% [95% confidence interval (CI) = -0.06, 1.88]). However, subgroup analyses showed that long HIIT (i.e., > 1 min) is better than MIT for enhancing FMD (5 studies; MD+ = 1.46% [95% CI = 0.35, 2.57]), while no differences were found between short HIIT (i.e., ≤ 1 min) and MIT (3 studies; MD+ = -0.41% [95% CI = -1.64, 0.82]). Insufficient data prevented pooled analysis for EPCs, and individual studies failed to find statistically significant differences (p > .050) between HIIT and other exercise modalities in increasing EPCs. Discussion: Poor methodological quality could limit the precision of the current results and increase the inconsistency. Long HIIT is superior to MIT for improving FMD in patients with CAD or HFrEF. Future studies comparing HIIT to other exercise modalities, as well as the effect on EPCs and in HF with preserved ejection fraction are required.
