Summary

High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) studies are required to determine the optimal training protocol to improve time trial(TT) performance. Data collection for this study will be conducted virtually through the use of a software platform (www.trainerroad.com) by people in their homes on cycle ergometers. Investigators will recruit people who are familiar with cycle exercise training and have their own equipment. By using a virtual platform to collect data, investigators will extend our reach to include a much larger and diverse sample of adult men and women up to age 45 years. In addition, the software platform will allow participants to train from the safety of their home, preventing the risk of exposure to COVID19.

OBJECTIVES O1: The primary objective of this study is to determine the influence of interval work-bout duration on TT performance when total mechanical work is matched.

O2: The secondary objective of the study is to determine the influence of work-bout duration on TT performance when work is matched by effort.

HYPOTHESIS H1: long duration bouts of HIIT will lead to greater improvements in performance compared to short duration bouts due to larger total amount of work completed during the interval sessions.

H2: HIIT will lead to equivalent improvements in performance when work is matched by the participant's rating of effort.
