Clinical Trial Summary

High-intensity interval exercise (HIIT), as compared to moderate intensity continuous training (MICT), is a time-efficient strategy to decrease total and abdominal fat mass (FM). However, the mechanisms underlying such adaptations are not yet elucidated and research are still needed to establish the optimal HIIT according to subject characteristics. The aim of this study was to compare acute HIIE and MICE cycling exercises on enjoyment, post-exercise substrate oxidation, appetite and energy intakes over 24h in postmenopausal women with overweight or obesity. It is hypothesized that compared with the traditional MICE, HIIE could favor greater enjoyment, higher 2h-post-exercise fat oxidation and a similar energy intakes over 24h despite different post-exercise appetite perceptions.

Description:

The aim of this study was to compare acute HIIE and MICE cycling exercises on enjoyment, post-exercise substrate oxidation, and appetite and energy intakes over 24h in postmenopausal women with overweight or obesity.

Using a randomized crossover design, 12 postmenopausal women completed 3 cycling exercises at 6-days intervals:

i) Moderate Intensity Continuous Exercise (MICE) which consisted of 35 min cycling at 60-65% theorical Peak Heart Rate (thPHR) ii) High Intensity Interval Exercise 1 (HIIE 1) 60 cycles of speeding up for 8 s at 80-90%thPHR followed by pedaling slowly for 12 s (20min) iii) High Intensity Interval Exercise 2 (HIIE 2) which consisted of repeated 10 x 1min at 80-90% thPHR followed by pedaling slowly for 1min.

Substrate oxidation (CHO and FAT) were measured at rest and 2h- post exercise. Enjoyment, perceived exertion and appetite were recorded and post-exercise energy intakes were assessed over 24h.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Post-exercise (2 hours) CHO and FAT oxidation	CHO and FAT oxidation were measured after each modality with indirect calorimetry during 2 hours post-exercise	2 hours post-exercise
Secondary	Enjoyment	Perceive enjoyment evaluated with Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale (PAES) for each modalities. The total scores of PAES are between 18 and 126 with the higher scores indicating greater enjoyment.	Immediately post-exercise
Secondary	Rate Perceive Exertion (RPE)	RPE evaluated with adapted Borg's Scale during exercise for each modalities	During exercise (5-10-15 and 20 minutes for HIIE1 and 2 ; 9-18-27 and 35 minutes for MICE) which corresponds at 25-50-75 and 100% of bout completion.
Secondary	Appetite	The validated 100 millimeters Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to assess the subjective appetite at 4 time points: before, immediately post-exercise, 60 minutes and 120 minutes post-exercise. This scale comprised four questions anchored with words representing the opposing extreme states of desire to eat, hunger, fullness and prospective food consumption. The score of each question are between 0 and 100.	Before, immediately post-exercise, 60 minutes and 120 minutes post-exercise
Secondary	Energy intakes	Estimated energy intakes using dietary questionnaires	24 hours post-exercise
