The effects of short duration, combined sprint interval training on performance measures
Sprint interval training (SIT) has been shown to be a time efficient training modality for improving performance measures such as peak oxygen uptake, incremental time to exhaustion, and power output. Whilst this is beneficial, literature has focussed on the use of lower extremity SIT, despite …

The effects of heat acclimation on physiological responses to sprint interval training at various pedal resistances
… time consuming. Therefore, implementing repeated sprint training into a HA protocol may provide an alternate time efficient strategy to acclimate. However, most studies investigating repeated sprint training use 0.075 kg·kg<sup>-1</sup> pedal resistance due to resistance as a variable being …

Effects of sprint interval training on neuromuscular fatigue and ACL injury risks in racquet sports athletes
… risks during cutting manoeuvres using a novel training programme that implemented average work; rest ratios of the each of the racquet sports involved. Study 1 investigated sex differences during badminton jump smashes in terms of performance and kinematics linked to ACL injuries. The second …

The acute and chronic effects of exercise intensity and rest duration on physiological responses during 4-second sprint interval exercise
STUDY 1: Short sprint interval training (sSIT) is usually performed at maximal ‘all-out’ intensities, that are 5-8-times higher than the power needed to elicit VO2peak. However, the %VO2peak associated with repeated submaximal power sprints (%Pmax), particularly when paired with varying rest …

The effects of anaerobic swim ergometer training on sprint performance in adolescent swimmers
The effects of anaerobic training using a swim ergometer on sprint swimming performance have not been investigated in competitive adolescent swimmers. The purpose of this study was to compare 4-weeks of sprint interval training (SIT) with a similar ergometer training intervention on associated …

The moderating role of recovery durations in high intensity interval training protocols of runners, cyclists and team sport athletes
High intensity interval training (HIIT) is often regarded the most effective training modality to improve cardiorespiratory and metabolic functioning, and, in turn endurance performance. HIIT incorporating repeated long work intervals (up to 16 min) can be described as ‘aerobic interval training’ …

An exploration of muscle oxygen kinetics in professional boxing
… reactions to various professional boxing training modalities and assess the impact of training interventions and environmental changes on performance outcomes.<br/><br/>In Study 1, the peripheral response of the rectus femoris muscle was investigated using NIRS wearable technology to …

The effects of vitamin D<sub>3</sub> supplementation on the aerobic and anaerobic exercise performance of recreational combat sport athletes
… conjunction with concurrent lower and upper body sprint interval training (SIT) increased lower body VO2 peak by 8% in the vitamin D supplemented group with no change (-0.7%) in the placebo group. This was coupled with increases in lower body Wingate peak power by 22-25% and by 14-16% in vitamin D …

Comparison of short-term sprint interval versus traditional endurance training on metabolic adaptations in sedentary overweight/obese men
… recreationally trained individuals, short-term sprint interval training (SIT) has been shown to induce metabolic and performance adaptations that parallel those of traditional exercise recommendations (TER), and require considerably less time commitment. However, little is known about the …

The comparison of physiological adaptations following a 4-week cycle and shuttle run-based SIT interventions
… of 4 weeks of 10-meter shuttle run and cycling sprint interval training (SIT) protocols on physiological and performance measures. Twenty-six healthy, recreationally active adults (19 males, 7 females; age 25± 5y) were assigned to either a control (n=9), run group (n=8), or cycle group (n=9). …

Assessment of competitive requirements, repeated sprint paddle ability and trainability of paddling performance in surfers
… the physiological characteristics of surfers, training techniques and various indices important to surfing performance are limited and characterised by methodological discrepancies. This thesis consists of five studies to assess the competitive requirements, test specific repeat sprint fitness …

The role of lactate supplementation and metabolism in invasion sport performance
… rugby union match play to determine whether sprint speed and intermittent sprint performance could be improved. Ten recreationally active participants were recruited for part one of the study to determine the rate at which orally consumed lactate solution appears in the blood. For part two of …

An investigation into participant adherence within high intensity interval training.
High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) has been shown to be a time efficient and adherable method of exercise when performed under laboratory, supervised conditions. Whilst this is beneficial as HIIT has the ability to promote health improvements, there is limited research which investigates the …

Long term adaptations and mechanisms of different protocols of ''concurernt'' training in recreationally trained male adults.
… and endurance solicitations within the same training program or session appears to be a compulsory path to achieving high performance in many sports. Those performances are highly dependent on multiple physical qualities that must be developed simultaneously, whereas having appropriate …
