Hypertension

Can HIIT Workouts Improve Arterial Stiffness?

A randomized study evaluated the effects of a 4 week intervention of HIIT (3 bouts of 9-min intervals at 90% of HRmax, interspersed by 1 min rest, for 5 days a week) in normal weight obese females (having normal BMI but excessive Body Fat > 30%).

HIIT can Decrease Arterial Stiffness, Improve Cardiometabolic Parameters and May Therefore Help Ameliorate the Risk of Arteriosclerosis in Normal Obese Females.

 

HIIT: High intensity interval training; BMI: Body Mass Index; HRmax: Maximal heart rate, AVI: Arterial velocity pulse
index; API: arterial pressure volume index, LDL: Low density lipoprotein; HR: Heart rate; BP: Blood pressure
