Self-paced High-intensity Interval Training and Moderate Intensity Continuous Training in Young Adults

Study will be randomized clinical trial. Data will be collected from non probability convenient sampling technique. Total 26 participants from Pakistan Sports Board will be selected and randomly allocated in two different groups i.e. Group A and Group B. Group A will be given high intensity interval training and Group B will be on moderate intensity continuous training. Statistical package for the social sciences will be used to analyze the results by using parametric test after confirming normality of data.

About this study

Recreational activities are those in which you genuinely engage with others to have fun and relax in your leisure time. This includes activities that require physical activity as well as connections and play with others. They are not activities that you can finish totally on your alone; while you can try to do some with your own, you will miss out on the enjoyment of doing that with others

High-intensity interval training is a training that cycles between high bursts of activity and predetermined times of less intensive exercise or rest period. The therapy lasted 6 weeks, and HIIT comprised of two 12-24 × 30 second high-intensity runs separated by thirty seconds of relaxation.

Moderate-intensity continuous training consists of periods followed by 50 minutes of exercise- bicycling, running, jogging, marching, paddling, etc. - at a recorded frequency of 70-75 percent maximal heart rate. The MICT ran continuously for 24-48 minutes. From the day of the six weeks intervention strategies, the mentioned assays were conducted: Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test level 1, repeated sprint ability , sprint test, alter of way test which is t drill, and physical activity enjoyment scale and shuttle run. Through these trainings, individuals in both groups must follow the old their balanced meal.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Both genders was included in our study.
  • Participants of age of 16 to 35 years were included.
  • Included those participants who were playing sports such as cricket, football, basketball and tennis and their training workload of less than three training units per week and less than one eight minutes, also doing core strength training, also doing cardio trainings and group exercise, from the last two years.

Exclusion criteria

  • Adults who were having history of any trauma from last 6 month were excluded.
  • SOB or any other cardiopulmonary disease.

Treatment and study plan

High Intensity Interval Training

Other

The therapy lasted 6 weeks, and HIIT comprised of two 12-24 × 30 second high-intensity runs separated by thirty seconds of relaxation.

Moderate Intensity Continuous Training

Other

The MICT ran continuously for 24-48 minutes. From the day of the six weeks intervention strategies, the mentioned assays were conducted: Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test level 1, repeated sprint ability , sprint test, alter of way test which is t drill, and physical activity enjoyment scale and shuttle run. Through these trainings, individuals in both groups must follow the old their balanced meal.

Primary outcomes

  1. Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test level 1 (YYIRTL-1)

    Time frame: 3 months

    To assess an athlete's capacity to undertake high-intensity aerobic activities continuously

  2. Repeated sprint ability (RSA)

    Time frame: 3 months

    Sprint test of 10-30 meters to improve and uphold maximal exertion through consecutive sprints

  3. Change of direction test (T-drill)

    Time frame: 3 months

    It includes forward, sideways, and revers movements

  4. Training rating of perceived exertion (RPE)

    Time frame: 3 months

    It is based on the physical experiences a human has during physical exercise, such as elevated heart rate, increase breathing or respiratory rate, increased perspiration, and muscular tiredness.

  5. Physical activity enjoyment scale (PACES)

    Time frame: 3 months

    It is an 18-item scale that examines physical activity pleasure by simply asking to score "how you feel right here about the physical activity you've been performing

  6. Shuttle run test (PACER)

    Time frame: 3 months

    The thirty feet agility Shuttle Run is indeed an agility assessment wherein the opponent sprints switch between different line segments as rapidly as feasible, trying to pick up wooden blocks for a distance travelled of 8 m. main goal: this is a way of measuring of power and speed
