Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare exercise at 70% of maximal heart rate were total energy expenditure is twice compared to interval training at 90- 95% of maximal heart rate. Since 70% of maximal heart rate is well above the minimum threshold for improvements in maximal oxygen uptake it should be suited to investigate the effect of duration.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

endurance exercise of different duration and intensity

Two interventions are compared with aerobic capacity as the main outcome. one group exercise at 70% of maximal heart rate for 90 minutes 3 times per week. group two exercise performe10 minutes warm up at 70% of maximal heart rate 4 x 4 minutes intervals at 90-95% of maximal heart rate with 3 minutes active pause at 70% of maximal heart rate in between, and finally 5 minutes cooling down at 70 % of maximal heart rate.
