Interval training exercise could be a fountain of youth

[judith74]

Hello

I found this article in CNN (http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/07/health/in ... index.html) about a new study published today in the journal Cell Metabolism. http://www.cell.com/cell-metabolism/ful ... 17)30099-2


Maybe it will be interesting for somebody. It is open access.

Highlights
•High-intensity interval training improved age-related decline in muscle mitochondria
•Training adaptations occurred with increased gene transcripts and ribosome proteins
•Changes to RNA with training had little overlap with corresponding protein abundance
•Enhanced ribosomal abundance and protein synthesis explain gains in mitochondria
Summary
The molecular transducers of benefits from different exercise modalities remain incompletely defined. Here we report that 12 weeks of high-intensity aerobic interval (HIIT), resistance (RT), and combined exercise training enhanced insulin sensitivity and lean mass, but only HIIT and combined training improved aerobic capacity and skeletal muscle mitochondrial respiration. HIIT revealed a more robust increase in gene transcripts than other exercise modalities...
