The physiological responses to volume-matched high-intensity functional training protocols with varied time domains by Jessica S. Smith, Jessica S. Smith, Gabriella F. Bellissimo, Gabriella F. Bellissimo, Fabiano T. Amorim

“…Conversely, there was no interaction effect for CK (p < 0.16), yet a significant increase was observed from pre- to post-exercise for both the EMOM and the RFT (p < 0.01).ConclusionThe RFT induced greater physiological stress than the EMOM, indicating that prescribed rest intervals significantly affect the metabolic, cardiovascular, and perceptual responses during high-intensity functional exercise. Furthermore, the RFT may provide a greater cardiorespiratory stimulus, while the EMOM may be more suitable for technique development and recovery in trained individuals.…”
