High-Intensity Interval Training versus Moderate-Intensity Continuous Training on Health Outcomes for Children and Adolescents: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Seven maximal speed sprints for 30 s should be completed during a 20-minute session, with a load set at the power elicited at peak VO2. Between each sprint, an active unloaded rest bout of 2 minutes 45 s cycling was allowed
20-minute sessions of continuous cycling period with a heart rate between 160 and 170 beats per minute. This is equated to a mean intensity of 75-85% peak VO2 or 85% HRmax, as established in the pretraining peak VO2 test
Repeated 60-second efforts (covered distance per bout: ) at 100% of the peak velocity (determined by the maximal graded cardiorespiratory test), interspersed by a 3 min active recovery period at 50% of the peak velocity
30-minute continuous endurance exercise at 80% of the peak HR
Warm-up (stretching of the large muscle groups and cardiovascular exercises at 30% of peak watt for five minutes), a sprint interval block (10 minutes), continuous aerobic exercise (10 minutes), another sprint interval block (10 minutes), and cooling down (stretching of the large muscle groups and cardiovascular exercises at 30% of peak watt for 5 minutes)
Warming up (stretching of the large muscle groups and cardiovascular exercises at 30% of peak watt for five minutes), cycling (10 minutes), walking/running (10 minutes), stepping (10 minutes), and cooling down (stretching of the large muscle groups and cardiovascular exercises at 30% of peak watt for five minutes)
Personalized aerobic training on a treadmill, three times a week under the supervision of an exercise physiologist at an intensity that corresponds to the ventilatory threshold I
Personalized aerobic training on a treadmill three times a week under the supervision of an exercise physiologist at a speed of 20% below the ventilatory threshold I
10, two-minute cycling bouts at 90-95% of age as predicted by HRmax, with one minute of active recovery at 55% of age predicted by HRmax between each interval for a total of 30 minutes
Cycle at any speed and workload as long as they stayed within the specified target HR range. Following the warm-up, cycling was continuously done for 30 minutes at 65-70% of age predicted HRmax
A 10-minute warm-up, followed by 30 minutes of 10 cycles of vigorous exercise at 80 to 90% HRmax, 2 minutes of active recovery at 60% HRmax, and 10 minutes of cooldown
50 minutes of supervised aerobic exercise with a regimen consisting of a 10-minute warm-up, 30 minutes of relatively continuous aerobic exercise at 65% of estimated exercise capacity, and a 10-minute cooldown period
50-60 min of continuous running starting at a work rate corresponding to 60-70% of HR reserve in the first week and then progressively increasing to 80-90% heart rate reserve throughout the intervention period
50-60 minutes of continuous running on a treadmill beginning in the first week at a work rate of 60-70% of HR reserve and then progressively increasing to 80-95% HR reserve throughout the intervention period
2 sessions of 40-minute duration per week. Each session involved 20 minutes of high-intensity intermittent exercises (around 10-20 s) and 20 minutes of sports activities

6 repeated 40 s efforts of high-intensity walking at a heart rate that corresponds to 100% of VO2 max and then were intermixed with 5 min of walking at low intensity corresponding to 40% of VO2 max
Exercising at a HR that corresponds to 40% or 70% of VO2 max
Three times each week for 12 weeks and all participants received between four and six, 20-30 min nutrition consultations with a dietitian for over 12-week period

Three sets of high-intensity interval run separated by 3 minutes of passive rest, 10-minute warm-up protocol followed by high-intensity interval runs and ended with a 10-minute cooldown (warm-up protocol and cooldown were the same as the football training group)
A 10-minute low intensity warm-up followed by 4 8-minute periods of play interspersed with 2 minutes of passive rest and ending with a 10-minute cooldown
