Extremely short duration sprint interval training improves vascular health in older adults

Abstract: Exercise improves health and physical function in older people, but very few older people participate although the trend is for increasing participation. This study sought to determine whether short duration sprint interval training (SIT) improves health and physical function in older people. Seventeen (9 M and 8 F) older adults (age 66 ± 3 years) were recruited. Participants had blood pressure, physical function and blood lipid profile measured and were then allocated to a control group (CON n = 7) or a SIT g… Show more

“…The findings of the present study identified different protocols for interventions: IT (Ahmaidi et al, 1998;Pichot et al, 2005;Lepretre et al, 2009;Molmen et al, 2012), Sprint Interval Training (SIT) (Adamson et al, 2019), and the High Intensity Interval Walking Training (HIIWT) (Nemoto et al, 2007). With the advances and popularization of the interval training using different intensities of effort, it was necessary to elaborate on different nomenclatures for this method.…”

“…None of the studies concealed criteria (PEDro scale question 3). Four studies (Ahmaidi et al, 1998;Nemoto et al, 2007;Lepretre et al, 2009;Adamson et al, 2019) showed similarity between groups (PEDro scale question 4). None of the studies had blinded methodological criteria (PEDro scale questions 5, 6, and 7).…”

“…The aerobic stimulus can reduce the plasma level of renin, re ecting in the decrease of the renin-angiotensin system, improving the barore ex activity, consequently the behavior of BP, HR, and HRV 20,31 . The improvement in capillary density, endothelial function and oxygen delivery to tissues, are factors that can in uence hemodynamic and autonomic development 19,54,56 . Concerning VO 2max , successive stimuli combined with periods of recovery, make the elderly manage to impose higher intensities, and this promotes better transport capacity and consumption of O 2 .…”

“…In older adults, twice-weekly SIT (10 × 6 s sprints with 60 s recovery) has been shown to improve aerobic capacity (8% increase in predicted VO 2 max) and physical function (11% decrease in timed get up and go) after 6 weeks [15]. Following 10 weeks of the same SIT protocol, physical function was shown to be improved along with arterial stiffness and circulating lipids [16]. The lowest frequency reported for SIT is one session every 5 days (6 × 30 s sprints at 50% peak power with 3 min recovery) which resulted in a clinically relevant increase in peak power and greater lean body mass in older adults after 6 weeks [17].…”
