Psychophysiological Responses to Group Exercise Training Sessions: Does Exercise Intensity Matter?

Abstract: Group exercise training programs were introduced as a strategy for improving health and fitness and potentially reducing dropout rates. This study examined the psychophysiological responses to group exercise training sessions. Twenty-seven adults completed two group exercise training sessions of moderate and vigorous exercise intensities in a random and counterbalanced order. The %HRR and the exertional and arousal responses to vigorous session were higher than those during the moderate session (p<0.05). Conse… Show more

“…In fact, drop‐out rate for physical activity treatment in patients with depression is usually quite high, around 30% . Reasons for dropping‐out are usually connected to lack of time or unpleasant feelings connected with high imposed intensity exercise . According to the ACSM guidelines, all studies having aerobic exercise as the active treatment used vigorous intensity.…”

“…In a counterbalanced manner, 6–20 Borg RPE and FS scales were administered at the end of each 2-min stage of the maximal incremental exercise test. Participants rated “how” and “what” they felt at these moments ( DaSilva et al, 2011 ; Vandoni et al, 2016 ). Standard definitions of perceived exertion and affective valence, along with separate instructional sets for the 6–20 Borg RPE and FS scales, were read to the participants before the tests ( Ekkekakis et al, 2005 ; Noble and Robertson, 1996 ).…”

“…First, confidence to participate in PA might be influenced by co-morbidity where exercise-induced physical symptoms are misinterpreted as health threats, causing fear and distress that can decrease self-efficacy [ 32 ]. Second, our pre-assessment informed the EOD dose that deliberately worked patients at a moderate intensity to minimize high-intensity unpleasantness [ 33 ] and was also designed to convey a positive knowledge about exercising. While knowledge acquisition is a necessary factor in changing behaviour, it is not usually sufficient by itself and influences to change health behaviour must usually come from sources in addition to, or instead of, factual knowledge, including behavioural modification interventions [ 34 ].…”
