Short High-Intensity Interval Exercise for Workplace-Based Physical Activity Interventions: A Systematic Review on Feasibility and Effectiveness.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Workplace exercise interventions showed good results, but lack of time was often reported as a barrier to participation. To overcome this problem, several studies attempted to implement short high-intensity interval training (HIT) within the workplace.

Objectives

The aim of this systematic review is to explore the feasibility and effectiveness of HIT interventions within the workplace setting.

Data sources

A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed and SPORTDiscus to identify articles related to HIT within the workplace.

Study eligibility criteria

Only interventions that consisted of HIT programmes within the workplace and tested at least one physiological, psychological, or work-related outcome were included.

Results

Seven studies
