Summary

Several risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease could be prevented or treated by means of physical activity from childhood. Among the physical exercise programs for the improvement of these variables we can highlight high-intensity interval training. However, most of these studies have been carried out on overweight or obese athletes or schoolchildren and existing protocols on high intensity intervallic training are different. The main objective of the present research is to compare two high-intensity intervallic training protocols on body composition, heart rate, blood pressure, lipid profile, blood glucose, cardiovascular fitness, strength, quality of life, physical activity, enjoyment of physical activity and accident proneness in adolescents. The present investigation will be elaborated by a randomized-control trial design, with 2 experimental groups and a control group (CG). In each experimental groups a different protocol of high-intensity interval training is applied.

It is assessed cardiovascular capacity and strength. Body composition is assessed. Heart rate and blood pressure were also recorded. Lipid profile and blood glucose were obtained by blood sampling. Quality of life, sedentary and physical activity lifestyle, enjoyment of physical activity and Psychoeducational factors determining accident process are assessed.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Intensive high intensity intervallic training group

The intensive high intensity intervallic training group performs 6 sets of 60 seconds of work and 60 seconds of rest. During the first two weeks we work at an intensity of 80-85% of the reserve heart rate during the work phase and 50-55% of the reserve heart rate during the rest time. In weeks 3 and 4 the intensity in the work phase is increased by 5%, reaching from the fifth week onwards a work intensity of 95-95% of the reserve heart rate. The program duration is 8 weeks and the frequency of intervention is 2 sessions per week.

BEHAVIORAL

Extensive high-intensity intervallic training

The extensive high-intensity intervallic training group performs 3 sets of 120 seconds of work and 120 seconds of rest at an intensity of 70-75% of the reserve heart rate during the work phase and an intensity of 50-55% of the reserve heart rate during the rest phase. In weeks 3 and 4 the intensity in the work phase is increased by 5%, reaching from the fifth week onwards a work intensity of 80-85% of the reserve heart rate. The program duration is 8 weeks and the frequency of intervention is 2 sessions per week.
