Acute cardiovascular and metabolic responses to the REHIT workout.
| Parameter | Range (Lowest) | Range (Highest) | Overall REHIT Workout | Intense Ride 2 × 20 s Sprints |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HR (beats/min) | 76 | 168 | 120.9 ± 13.8 a | 152.6 a ± 14.1 |
| %HRR | 7.2 | 94.0 | 44.2 ± 8.1 | 86.1 ± 4.4 |
| %VO2R | 8.7 | 92.9 | 33.7 ± 6.5 | 74.4 ± 11.5 |
| METs | 1.2 | 8.8 | 3.4 ± 0.9 | 6.2 ± 1.3 |
| kcal/min | 1.3 | 14.8 | 4.6 ± 2.1 | 8.2 ± 2.7 |
| SBP (mmHg) | 126 | 218 | 154.8 ± 31.8 | 160.9 ± 30.5 |
| DBP (mmHg) | 62 | 98 | 76.8 ± 11.8 | 78.0 ± 8.8 |
a Values are mean ± SD; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; HR, heart rate; %HRR, percentage heart rate reserve; kcal, kilocalories; METs, metabolic equivalents; SBP, systolic blood pressure; %VO2R, percentage oxygen uptake reserve.
