| Research Abstract |
Exercise performed on a routine bases is critical for the prevention of lifestyle-related diseases. We developed a transitory stimulation interval exercise (TSIE) in which the duration of strenuous exertion was reduced to 30 seconds at 75% VO2max of intensity, followed by 2 minutes and 30 seconds at 45% of VO2max. After completing 12 weeks of intervention, significant positive changes were observed in the TSIE group compared with the Non-exercise group in the relative change ratio from baseline in BMI, VO2max and HbA1c. However, when compared with same volume continuous moderate exercise of 50% VO2max, no significant differences were observed. With respect to measurements of oxidative stress, continuous moderate exercise may be more effective for positive changes compared to the TSIE.
