Abstract
This study investigated the impact of six high-intensity interval training (HIIT) running sessions at 1% or 10% slope on various physiological and performance parameters in 25 men. The partic-ipants underwent assessments of VO2max, time to exhaustion at 1% slope (TLim1%), and time to exhaustion at 10% slope (TLim10%) in the initial three visits. They were then randomly assigned to control (CON), HIIT at 1% slope (GT1%), or HIIT at 10% slope (GT10%) groups. Over three weeks, participants performed six HIIT sessions with equalized workload based on their indi-vidual maximal oxygen uptake (vVO2max). The sessions comprised 50% of TLim, with a 1:1 ratio of exercise to recovery at 50% vVO2max. Results indicated significant improvements in VO2max and peak velocity (VPeak) after HIIT at both slopes. Heart rate (HR) behavior differed between sessions for GT1%, while no significant differences were observed for GT10%. Rating of perceived exertion (RPE) significantly reduced for GT1% after the third session, with a similar trend for GT10%. In summary, six sessions of 1% or 10% slope HIIT effectively enhanced VO2max and VPeak, but there was no improvement in TLim performance, suggesting no adaptive transfer between training groups.
