Acute high-intensity intermittent running may elicit greater cardiorespiratory and metabolic demands than continuous; leaves open optimal 5-km training prescription.
Does high-intensity intermittent running alter physiological responses compared to moderate-intensity continuous running in physically active males?
High-intensity intermittent running induces greater physiological and metabolic demands than moderate-intensity continuous running over the same distance.
