The current Ph.D. dissertation revolves around the relationship between
exercise intensity and improvement cardiometabolic health. It has been suggested
that high intensity interval training and also moderate or resistance training
generate positive effects on metabolic risk factors. For these reasons, it is
necessary to clarify which type of training, is more effective to improve
cardiometabolic health in Latin American population. This doctoral thesis is based
on 6 scientific studies that have been published or submitted for publication in
scientific international journals. The first study (Chapter 2), we aimed to determine
the effects of moderate- versus high-intensity interval exercise training on vascular
function parameters in physically inactive adults. The second study (Chapter 3) to
compare the effects of high-intensity interval training and steady-state
moderate-intensity training on clinical components of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in
healthy physically inactive adults. The third study (Chapter 4), we investigated the
effect of moderate versus high-intensity interval exercise training on the HRV
indices in physically inactive adults. Study five (Chapter 6) are Lab-based studies to
evaluate the chronic impact of MCT or HIT on biomarkers of endothelial function,
arterial stiffness and heart rate variability parameters postprandially after a high-fat
meal. The last study of the current Ph.D. dissertation we aimed to investigate
whether 12 weeks of high-intensity interval training (HIIT), resistance training (RT),
concurrent training (CT=HIII+RT) or nutritional guidance (NG) induced
improvements in metabolic syndrome (MetS) risk factors, vascular function
parameters and ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) in sedentary and overweight
adults, and to compare the training adaptations between intervention groups.
