Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of high-intensity interval training versus moderate-intensity continuous training on vascular function: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: HIIT is more effective at improving brachial artery vascular function than MICT, perhaps due to its tendency to positively influence CRF, traditional CVD risk factors, oxidative stress, inflammation, and insulin sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aerobic interval training reduces cardiovascular risk factors more than a multitreatment approach in overweight adolescents.

TL;DR: It was found that 3 months of twice weekly high-intensity exercise sessions reduced several known cardiovascular risk factors in obese adolescents more than that observed after a multitreatment strategy, which was initiated as hospital treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Both aerobic endurance and strength training programmes improve cardiovascular health in obese adults

TL;DR: An important contribution towards improved aerobic work capacity, endothelial function and cardiovascular health originates from strength training, which may serve as a substitute when whole-body aerobic exercise is contra-indicated or difficult to perform.
