It is mostly said and believed that HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) is much more effective than traditional training. HIIT (High intensity Interval Training) is a time-efficient exercise strategy to improve cardio-respiratory and metabolic health. It can also induce changes in the skeletal muscle antioxidant enzyme activity and is used in sports training, whereas Traditional Training on the other hand is mainly used by people who just want to obtain a healthy living lifestyle and who want to prolong their life expectancy. In this essay one will be able to draw up a proper conclusion on whether the statement made by the greater population is really true or it's just an individual opinion.
There are debatable statements on whether HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) is good for one’s health or not. In recent research done it was found that HIIT is distinguished to be more enjoyable than moderate-intensity continuous exercise (Bartlett et al. 2011).In some of the research done it has been proven that High intensity Interval Training can improve cardio-respiratory fitness in a range of population including those who suffer from coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, middle age adults with metabolic syndrome and obese people. In many cases, the increase in cardio-respiratory fitness after High Intensity Interval Training was greater to after continuous moderate-intensity training (Wisloff et al. 2007; Tjonna et al. 2008, 2009; Moholdt et al. 2009).Additionally it is said to harmful to other people.
It is also said that HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) is more likely in causing some favorable changes in High-Density Lipoprotein cholesterol and Total cholesterol, but not Total Cholesterol in young adult men...

Another weakness in the experimental design was that the reliability of the experiment was very low. As each test subject was only tested against each amount of prior exercise once, the impact of random errors is likely very large, which can be seen by the spread of the data on the graph. Although, this was attempted to be rectified by averaging the results of all four test subjects, it does not improve reliability too much. Conclusion: The results of this investigation indicated that a relationship between the amount of prior exercise and muscle fatigue does exist, however the results are also not conclusive enough to speculate on what the relationship is. This means that the hypothesis “If the amount of time spent performing vigorous exercise prior to the set of repetitions increases, then the physical performance (number of repetitions) will decrease” cannot be supported or rejected due to the inconclusive data.

During the first one or two minutes of exercise, before the heart has pumped enough oxygenated blood to the working muscles, the muscles are powered by anaerobic energy. In order for these muscles to continue exercise, the body must supply them with continuous supply of oxygen, the more efficiently this is done, the better the cardiovascular fitness level. During cardiovascular conditioning, a program such as interva...
Being a healthy person, the torment an individual may be unveiling to as a result of poor health is pacified. To keep the body up tight with no stress, while the body is in action the person needs to keep some Fitness vocabulary. These are Cardio Respiratory Endurance, Muscular Strength, Body Composition, Muscular Endurance, Reaction Time, Coordination and Speed. Cardio Respiratory-Ability of the body’s circulatory, cardiovascular endurance measures the oxygen received while working out. Muscular Strength- Amount of force a muscle can produce with a single effort, for example the achievement of lifting weights. Body Composition-Refers primarily to the distribution of muscle and fat of the body, a normal healthy body configuration has enough muscle tissues with a rate of low fat tissues. Muscular Endurance- the maximum force of a muscle and or group of ...
The tendency to build up high cholesterol may run in families, but extremely high levels are usually the result of a poor diet high in saturated fats and calories, along with little or no exercise. In some cases, high levels of cholesterol may be associated with undiagnosed medical symptoms such as diabetes or low thyroid function. According to the American Heart Association, there would eventually be a 50 percent lower rate of heart disease if Americans would lower their blood cholesterol levels by 25 percent. These statements find confirmation in a 1984 report done by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institution on the results of a 10 year study. It showed that for every 1 percent of lowered cholesterol, the chances of a heart attack are lowered by 2 percent.

Many people know when you exercise for long periods of time; your breathing becomes more shallow and quick. The main human organ system used when exercising is the respiratory system. There are two types of respiration your body can carry out, aerobic, with oxygen, and anaerobic, without. The reason for getting tired from exercise is because when the body runs out of the oxygen it needs, anaerobic respiration takes its place. This respiration has no oxygen which means the body releases less energy and produces lactic acid. Lactic acid is a poisonous waste product that stops muscles contracting and relaxing. In this investigation, I will be finding out whether exercise that has two different types of respiration has a strong affect on the heart and its’ cardiac cycle.

“With the exception of nutrition, more fallacies exist in the area of exercise than in any other area of health” (Dintiman, Stone, Pennington, & Davis, 1984). Exercise produces significant physical and mental benefits and is extremely vital to life. It substantially improves stamina, strengthens and tones muscles, helps prevent diseases, enhances flexibility, controls weight, and prolongs the quality of life. In order to gain all the benefits from exercise and be truly healthy, it is very important to understand and take action with both types of exercise: anaerobic and aerobic. With the combination of aerobic and anaerobic exercise, an individual will greatly increase their overall health and wellness significantly.
