Why the study?
A larger morning BP surge independently predicts cardiovascular events, but whether the timing of acute exercise influences this surge remains unknown.
Does morning versus evening high-intensity interval exercise reduce the magnitude of the morning blood pressure surge in young healthy adults?

Timed HIIE offers no benefit for morning BP surge in healthy young adults; challenges chronotherapy hypotheses and warrants trials in hypertensive cohorts.
Does morning versus evening high-intensity interval exercise reduce the magnitude of the morning blood pressure surge in young healthy adults?
High-intensity interval exercise performed in either the morning or evening does not attenuate the morning blood pressure surge in young healthy adults.
