The purpose our study was determine if high-intensity interval (HIIT) protocol would be as effective continuous aerobic endurance (ET) on participants. Additionally, this investigated the effects HIIT vs. ET CRP.Methods: Twelve participants (33.3±6.1 yrs; 3M/9W) participated 8 weeks cycle ergometer training. exercised for 30 min/day, 4 days/week 40% reserve. 1:1 work-to-rest 20 3 60% peak power. Resting mean arterial CRP wer...
