Superior mitochondrial adaptations in human skeletal muscle after interval compared to continuous single‐leg cycling matched for total work
Abstract
KEY POINTS: A classic unresolved issue in human integrative physiology involves the role of exercise intensity, duration and volume in regulating skeletal muscle adaptations to training. We employed counterweighted single-leg cycling as a unique within-subject model to investigate the role of exercise intensity in promoting training-induced increases in skeletal muscle mitochondrial content. Six sessions of high-intensity interval training …
