Abstract
This research study investigates the impact of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) on cardiovascular health in sedentary adults. The prevalence of sedentary lifestyles and associated cardiovascular diseases has raised significant concerns globally. HIIT has gained popularity as an effective and time-efficient exercise method that may offer a promising solution to improve cardiovascular health in sedentary individuals. This study aims to explore the effects of HIIT on cardiovascular health markers such as blood pressure, heart rate, cholesterol levels, and aerobic fitness among sedentary adults. The research will be conducted using a randomized controlled trial design involving a sample of sedentary adults aged between 30-50 years. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a HIIT intervention group or a control group. The HIIT intervention will consist of structured exercise sessions involving alternating periods of high-intensity exercise and rest. The control group will maintain their regular sedentary lifestyle without any specific exercise intervention. Pre-test and post-test assessments will be conducted to measure changes in cardiovascular health markers between the two groups. The literature review will provide a comprehensive overview of existing studies on HIIT and its effects on cardiovascular health. The research methodology will detail the study design, participant recruitment, intervention protocols, data collection methods, and statistical analysis procedures. The discussion of findings will present and interpret the results of the study, highlighting any significant changes in cardiovascular health markers following the HIIT intervention. The study aims to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on the efficacy of HIIT in improving cardiovascular health among sedentary adults. The findings of this research may have implications for developing targeted exercise interventions to promote cardiovascular health in sedentary populations. Overall, this study seeks to provide valuable insights into the potential benefits of HIIT as a preventive strategy for cardiovascular diseases among sedentary individuals.
