High intensity training: implications for optimal ageing
… thesis was to investigate the potential of using high intensity training (HIT) as an exercise paradigm to promote optimal ageing. Seventy seven participants (age range 35-75 years) were recruited to take part in HIT protocols consisting of 10 x 6 second sprints interspersed with a minimum of 1 …

Role of active and passive recovery in adaptations to high intensity training
It has been established that Wingate-based high-intensity training (HIT) consisting of 4 to 6 x 30-s all-out sprints interspersed with 4-min recovery is an effective training paradigm. Despite the increased utilisation of Wingate-based HIT to bring about training adaptations, the majority of …

The effect of simulated training on basketball performance : A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Applied Science at Lincoln University
… adding hypoxia to 4 weeks of repeated sprint and high-intensity training improved explosive muscular power, aerobic performance and repeated sprint ability in 3x3 basketball players. Nine well trained female basketball players, were randomly assigned to a hypoxia group (H) (n = 4; age: 20.0 ± 1.6; …

The Effects of Uphill vs. Level-Grade High-Intensity Interval Training on Key Physiological Indices of Distance Running
… a frequently prescribed and often used form of high-intensity interval training in the development of competitive distance runners. In contrast, several biomechanical studies suggest uphill vs. level-grade running results in greater electromyographical (EMG) activity in lower body musculature, …

The Effects Daily, Maximal of Resistance Exercise on Muscular Function
Overtraining is a common problem in athletes that prevents many from becoming "elite". A decrement in an athlete's performance is usually an indicator that overtraining syndrome may be developing. Unfortunately, there is no model that can determine overtraining. A decline in performance results in …

Unravelling the role of tryptophan metabolism in the microbiota-gut-brain axis: focus on the effects of stress and exercise
… at different exercise intensities. We discovered intensity-dependent effects on various pillars of the microbiota-gut-brain axis. While high-intensity training increased the cortisol awakening response chronically, it also led to an increase in peripheral serotonin level directly following a …

Effects of high-intensity position-specific drills on physical and technical-skill performance in young soccer players
… researched over the years. As the average intensity of a soccer match is close to 80-90% of maximal heart rate (HRmax), it is necessary to train at or above this intensity. Thus, high-intensity interval running and small-sided games are often used to improve aerobic capacity and repeated …
