Effects of a Single Session of High Intensity Interval Treadmill Training on Corticomotor Excitability following Stroke: Implications for Therapy

Figure 1

Representative example from one participant (number 2) during HIITT showing heart rate during training (gray diamonds), heart rate during recovery (gray triangles), treadmill speeds achieved at each interval (black circles), and composite distance (black squares). Heart rate (beats per minute) is represented on the primary left -axis. Speed (miles per hour) and distance (miles) are presented on the secondary right -axis. -axis represents the time scale during treadmill training: 5 minute warm-up, the six walking intervals that the participant achieved during the session or in the case of the recovery HR, and the six recovery intervals that the participant needed to restore the HR to baseline.
