The main goal of this study was to investigate the acute metabolic and cardiorespiratory response to long and short HIIE compared to continuous exercise (CE) as well as its regulation and predictability. Six healthy well-trained sport students (5 males, 1 female; age: 25.7 +/- 3.1 years; height: 1.80 +/- 0.04 m; weight: 76.7 +/- 6.4 kg; VO2max: 4.33 +/- 0.7 l.min(-1)) performed a maximal incremental exercise test (IET) and subsequently three different exercise sessions matched for mean load (P-mean) and exercise duration (28 min): 1) long HIIE with submaximal peak workloads (P-peak = power output at 95 % of maximum heart rate), peak workload durations (t(peak)) of 4 min, and recovery durations (t(rec)) of 3 min, 2) short HIIE with P-peak according to the maximum power output (P-max) from IET, t(peak) of 20 s, and individually calculated t(rec) (26.7 +/- 13.4 s), and 3) CE with a target workload (P-target) equating to P-mean of HIIE. In short HIIE, mean lactate (La-mean) (5.22 +/- 1.41 mmol.l(-1)), peak La (7.14 +/- 2.48 mmol.l(-1)), and peak heart rate (HRpeak) (181.00 +/- 6.66 b.min(-1)) were significantly lower compared to long HIIE (La-mean: 9.83 +/- 2.78 mmol.l(-1); La-peak: 12.37 +/- 4.17 mmol.l(-1), HRpeak: 187.67 +/- 5.72 b.min(-1)). No significant differences in any parameters were found between short HIIE and CE despite considerably higher peak workloads in short HIIE. The acute metabolic and peak cardiorespiratory demand during "aerobic" short HIIE was significantly lower compared to long HIIE and regulable via Pmean. Consequently, short HIIE allows a consciously aimed triggering of specific and desired or required acute physiological responses.

Additionally, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems may serve as a tool to reduce the risk of exercise-induced hypoglycemia. It is unclear if CGM is accurate during CON and HIIE at different mean workloads. Seven T1DM patients performed CON and HIIE at 5% below (L) and above (M) the first lactate turn point (LTP1), and 5% below the second lactate turn point (LTP2) (H) on a cycle ergometer. Glucose was measured via CGM and in capillary blood (BG). Differences were found in comparison of CGM vs. BG in three out of the six tests (p < 0.05). In CON, bias and levels of agreement for L, M, and H were found at: 0.85 (-3.44, 5.15) mmol.L-1, -0.45 (-3.95, 3.05) mmol.L-1, -0.31 (-8.83, 8.20) mmol.L-1 and at 1.17 (-2.06, 4.40) mmol.L-1, 0.11 (-5.79, 6.01) mmol.L-1, 1.48 (-2.60, 5.57) mmol.L-1 in HIIE for the same intensities. Clinically-acceptable results (except for CON H) were found. CGM estimated BG to be clinically acceptable, except for CON H. Additionally, using CGM may increase avoidance of exercise-induced hypoglycemia, but usual BG control should be performed during intense exercise.
