Overview

Systematic review highlights similar impacts of HIIT and MICT on body composition and blood pressure in adolescents, suggesting exercise guidelines.

Key Points

  • HIIT resulted in a modest decrease in body fat percentage compared to MICT, indicating its effectiveness.
  • MICT showed greater effectiveness in reducing waist circumference with running interventions among overweight adolescents.
  • Both exercise modalities demonstrated comparable effects on blood pressure, body weight, and fat-free mass.
  • Further high-quality studies are crucial to solidify findings and refine exercise recommendations for adolescents.
