Equalization of exercise protocols: not if, but how
1University of Edinburgh, Moray House School of Education and Sport, Holyrood Road, Edinburgh, UK.
Abstract:
Comparative analysis of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) suffers from a lack of standardized metrics for intervention programming. Given the huge amount of research and general public attention to exercise as medicine, understanding how to compare exercise intervention protocols is both prescient and essential to interpreting the findings of studies of exercise therapy.

Exercise and Muscle Performance
Endurance exercises
Endurance exercises involve running, swimming, or cycling, which require repetitive movements with low force output. When a person engages in endurance exercise, a few noticeable changes occur in their skeletal muscles. For instance, the number of capillaries...

Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
