Why the study?
To determine how high-intensity interval training and moderate-intensity continuous training influence oxygen transport dynamics and microvascular remodeling.
Does high-intensity interval training improve VO2max and microvascular remodeling more than moderate-intensity continuous training in healthy sedentary adults?

HIIT and MICT may differentially affect oxygen transport in healthy youth; leaves open effects in cardiovascular patients.
Does high-intensity interval training improve VO2max and microvascular remodeling more than moderate-intensity continuous training in healthy sedentary adults?
High-intensity interval training induces superior improvements in VO2max compared to moderate-intensity continuous training, driven by microvascular structural adaptations such as pericyte recruitment rather than angiogenesis.
