NO INTERVENTION

No intervention: Control

HIIT-AB Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Intake: 330ml (women) or 2x300 ml (men) of beer with 5.4% alcohol. The beverage intakes will be programmed from Monday to Friday. Training: The volume in HIIT 40-65 min/week at high intensity. HIIT with short intervals. Frequency two times/week. Load variation. Gradual progression to control the exercise dose. Periodization divided in: familiarization phase, phase I, phase II. Sessions. The participants will performed 8 weight-bearing exercises (in circuit form) 2 times/set with an active rest (walking at 6 RPE scale) as many times at as defined. The HIIT intensity will controlled by RPE (0-10 RPE scale). All sessions will be started with a dynamic standardized warm-up, including several muscle activation exercises, and will be ended with a cooling-down protocol.

Other: HIIT-AB Group

HIIT-NAB Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Intake: 330 ml (women) or 2x300 ml (men) of beer without alcohol (0.0%). The beverage intakes will be programmed from Monday to Friday. Training: The volume in HIIT 40-65 min/week at high intensity. HIIT with short intervals. Frequency two times/week. Load variation. Gradual progression to control the exercise dose. Periodization divided in: familiarization phase, phase I, phase II. Sessions.

EXPERIMENTAL

Intake: 330 ml (women) or 2x300 ml (men) of sparkling water. The beverage intakes will be programmed from Monday to Friday. Training: The volume in HIIT 40-65 min/week at high intensity.
