Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological adaptations to low-volume, high-intensity interval training in health and disease
TL;DR: Some of the mechanisms responsible for improved skeletal muscle metabolic control and changes in cardiovascular function in response to low‐ volume HIT are reviewed and insight is provided on the utility of low‐volume HIT for improving performance in athletes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short‐term sprint interval versus traditional endurance training: similar initial adaptations in human skeletal muscle and exercise performance
Martin J. Gibala,Jonathan P. Little,Martin Van Essen,Geoffrey Wilkin,Kirsten A. Burgomaster,Adeel Safdar,Sandeep Raha,Mark A. Tarnopolsky +7 more
TL;DR: Data demonstrate that SIT is a time‐efficient strategy to induce rapid adaptations in skeletal muscle and exercise performance that are comparable to ET in young active men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low-volume high-intensity interval training reduces hyperglycemia and increases muscle mitochondrial capacity in patients with type 2 diabetes
Jonathan P. Little,Jenna B. Gillen,Mike Percival,Adeel Safdar,Mark A. Tarnopolsky,Zubin Punthakee,Mary E. Jung,Martin J. Gibala +7 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that low-volume HIT can rapidly improve glucose control and induce adaptations in skeletal muscle that are linked to improved metabolic health in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A practical model of low‐volume high‐intensity interval training induces mitochondrial biogenesis in human skeletal muscle: potential mechanisms
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a practical model of low volume HIT is a potent stimulus for increasing skeletal muscle mitochondrial capacity and improving exercise performance and suggested that increases in SIRT1, nuclear PGC‐1α, and Tfam may be involved in coordinating mitochondrial adaptations in response to HIT in human skeletal muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low-volume interval training improves muscle oxidative capacity in sedentary adults.
TL;DR: Constant-load low-volume HIT may be a practical time-efficient strategy to induce metabolic adaptations that reduce the risk for inactivity-related disorders in previously sedentary middle-aged adults.
