Summary

Aerobic exercise produces increases in cardiorespiratory fitness (CF), which constitute a protective factor for cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. Therefore, aerobic exercise is a key strategy to promoting cardiovascular. There is some evidence that aerobic high intensity interval training may lead to greater increases in CF compared with continuous moderate-intensity training.

The main objective of this study is to examine the effects of an aerobic high intensity training program versus a continuous moderate intensity training program on CF in men 18 to 44 years.
