Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Sprint Interval Training (SIT) ProtocolExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants in the Sprint Interval Training group will perform a 2.5-minute warm up at a VO2 max of 30%. Next, the participants will perform 6 all-out sprints at 150-200% of VO2 max, separated by 2-minute active rests at 50% VO2 max. The total exercise time of the SIT protocol is about 14 minutes. Finally, the participants will perform a walking cool-down of 3.5 minutes at 30% VO2 max, for a total exercise duration of 20 minutes.
Group II: Moderate Intensity Continuous Training (MICT)ProtocolExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants in the Moderate Intensity Continuous Training group will first be warming up for 2.5 minutes at a VO2 max of 30%. After the warm up, participants will be running for 15 minutes at 45-60% of VO2 max. Finally, the participants will perform a 2.5-minute cool-down at 30% VO2 max, for a total exercise duration of 20 minutes.
Group III: High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) ProtocolExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants in the HIIT group will start with a 2.5-minute warm-up at about 30% VO2 max. The participants will then complete 3 running bouts at 80-90% VO2 max. Each running bout will be separated by 2 minutes of active rest where the participants will walk at 50% VO2 max. The total exercise time of this protocol will be 15 minutes. Finally, the participants will finish with a 2.5 min cool-down where they will walk at a light intensity of 30% VO2 max, for a total exercise duration of 20 minutes.
