Is 2-week calisthenics high-intensity interval training enough to change aerobic and anaerobic capacity?Keywords: Yüksek ?iddetli aral?kl? egzersiz,Egzersiz,Kardiyo respiratuvar uygunluk Abstract: Purpose: The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of high-intensity interval calisthenics training (HIIT) performed over two weeks on aerobic and anaerobic capacity. Methods: Twenty-three college age inactive (The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) <600 metabolic equivalents (MET) volunteers were randomly divided into two groups. HIIT (N=12) group performed 6 sessions of calisthenics HIIT program over two weeks, the control group was asked not to change their activity level. Aerobic capacity was measured with 20-m Multistage Shuttle Run Test and anaerobic capacity was tested with Wingate anaerobic test, also peripheral muscle strength was assessed by back and leg dynamometer, initially and two weeks later for both groups. Results: Aerobic capacity increased from 34.44±8.88 ml/kg/min to 38.52±52 ml/kg/min (p<0.05) in HIIT group. Leg and back muscle strength significantly improved in the same group (p<0.05). Although peripheral isometric muscle strength increased anaerobic capacity did not change (p>0.05). There was no change in any of the outcome measures of the control group (p>0.05). Conclusion: This study showed that two weeks calisthenics HIIT is safe and effective in improving aerobic capacity and periphery muscle strength in sedentary young individuals
