Metabolic adaptation
High-intensity interval exercise significantly improves the postprandial insulin response compared to moderate-intensity continuous exercise and sitting.
HIIT may be particularly beneficial for managing post-meal insulin levels in at-risk populations.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
High-intensity interval exercise significantly improves the postprandial insulin response to a greater extent than moderate-intensity continuous exercise and sitting.
Why this rating
The study design includes experimental comparisons, providing strong evidence.
