Abstract
Abstract Introduction &Purpose: The benefits of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on glycemic index in overweight and obese people are less well defined. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of high-intensity interval training on insulin, glucose and insulin resistance levels in overweight middle-aged men. Methodology: Twenty overweight middle-aged men were randomly divided into control and exercise groups. The exercise group performed the high-intensity interval training (90-80%) of maximum heart rate) for 6 weeks. After blood sampling, the concentration of glucose was measured by enzymatic staining with glucose oxidase technology, serum insulin by ELISA and insulin resistance. Results: The results showed that the high-intensity interval training had a significant effect on insulin (P= 0.001) and plasma glucose (P= 0.001) and insulin resistance (P= 0.001) in Overweight middle-aged men. Conclusion: According to the research results, High-intensity interval training improved glycemic index in overweight middle-aged men and decreased insulin resistance.
