Metabolic adaptation
HIIT improves HbA1c and insulin sensitivity to a similar extent as moderate-intensity continuous training.
HIIT can be recommended as an effective exercise strategy for improving glucose regulation in at-risk populations.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
In individuals at high risk of T2DM, HIIT improves HbA1c and insulin sensitivity to a similar extent as moderate-intensity continuous training, despite a lower overall workload.
Why this rating
