A Study to Compare the Effectiveness of Different High-intensity Interval Training Programs in Cardiac Rehabilitation
Sponsor: Mayo Clinic
Summary
The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of two different high intensity interval training (HIIT) prescription approaches on improving fitness, heart function, and the ability of the body's muscles to receive oxygen.

Conditions
Interventions
Progressive High Intensity Interval Training (PRO-HIIT)
Individual exercise training sessions, involving two weeks of moderate intensity continuous exercise and 10 weeks of interval exercise training. This protocol involves progression of training of 3 stages: 1) six high-intensity intervals (at an RPE of 15-18) of 1-min separated by five low-intensity intervals of 2-min; 2) three high-intensity intervals of 2-min separated by two low-intensity intervals of 4-min, and a further 2-min of low intensity following the last interval before cool-down; and 3) three high-intensity intervals of 3-min separated by two low-intensity intervals of 3-min, and a further 1-min of low intensity following last interval before cool-down.
Constant High Intensity Interval Training (CON-HIIT)
Individual exercise training sessions, involving two weeks of moderate intensity continuous exercise and 10 weeks of interval exercise training. This protocol involves a constant protocol of training, including six high-intensity intervals (at an RPE of 15-18) of 1-min separated by five low-intensity intervals of 2-min.
