Brief Summary

The present study aims to analyse first, the acute effects generated by a single bout of Sprint Interval Training (SIT) and, secondly, the effects of a long-term intervention on sedentary participants.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • oxygen uptake (VO2max) - ml/min/kg

    consumption oxygen uptake (VO2max) measured on a cycle ergometer The main objective is to determine at which time frame of sprint interval training blocks, the endurance performance (VO2max) is best.

    At the end of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd block : Each block = 2 weeks; each block is 1 day apart

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Maximum power (W)

    At the end of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd block : Each block = 2 weeks; each block is 1 day apart

  • Maximum theoretical force (N.m)

    At the end of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd block : Each block = 2 weeks; each block is 1 day apart

  • Maximum theoretical speed (m/s)

    At the end of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd block : Each block = 2 weeks; each block is 1 day apart

  • Maximum isometric force (N.m)

    At the end of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd block : Each block = 2 weeks; each block is 1 day apart

  • heart rate variability (HRV)

    At the end of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd block : Each block = 2 weeks; each block is 1 day apart

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Sedentary participants

OTHER

Series of measures placed throughout the time-course (before, after the 1st , the 2nd and the 3rd block of SIT). These measurements consist of physiological measurements (VO2max), neuromuscular capacities (force-speed profile), autonomic nervous system responses (heart rate variability) and blood markers (lactate, CK, cytokinases, µRNA).

Other: Sprint Interval Training

Interventions

The Sprint Interval Training (SIT) training consists of 3 successive blocks of 5 training sessions each. The sessions are 24 to 48 hours apart. . One block lasts two weeks. After the end of one block, the following block begins the day after. The Sprint Interval Training lasts 6 weeks. Each session consists of a series of sprints, the number of which varies from 8 to 14. Thus a session will last from 30 to 45 min approximately So, the time frame of this study is Baseline, Block 1, Block 2 and Block 3 (Not in day or week or month)

Sedentary participants
