Supports time-efficient sprint interval training for peripheral vascular benefits in healthy adults; leaves open effects in clinical populations.
Does sprint interval training improve peripheral artery distensibility and endothelial function compared to traditional endurance training in healthy untrained subjects?
Sprint interval training is a time-efficient strategy that elicits comparable improvements in peripheral vascular structure and function to traditional endurance training in healthy individuals.
