High-intensity Interval Training and Mixed Meal Responses in Persons With Spinal Cord Injury

NCT04011137 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 10

Summary

Persons with chronic paraplegia at an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease and type-2 diabetes compared to the able-bodied population. There is mounting evidence from the able-bodied literature that high-intensity interval training (HIIT) is more effective than moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) at improving markers of cardiometabolic health. Before we can understand the long-term training effects of HIIT in this population, it is important to compare the acute metabolic responses to a typical mixed-macronutrient meal following both exercise modalities.

This study is recruiting adults (aged 18-65 years) with paraplegia (T2 or below) who sustained their spinal cord injury more than one-year ago. Participants will need to attend the laboratory at the University of Bath on four separate occasions, once for preliminary testing, and three times for study trials.
