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 (317 participants) met the inclusion criteria. HIT interventions lasted 6–12 weeks, with a frequency of 2–4 sessions/week and a duration of 8–30 min per session. Feasibility was qualitatively investigated in four studies, with key positive aspects reported for HIT time-appeal, the sense of competence driven by individual intensity, and improved intention to exercise; five studies reported adherence rates > 80%. Small-to-large effect sizes were reported for improvements in cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness. Small-to-medium effect sizes were reported for blood parameters and health-related quality of life.

Conclusions

HIT interventions in the workplace showed limited effectiveness in improving health-related outcomes, while promising results regarding feasibility were reported, mainly due to the time-efficiency and the positive post-exercise psychosocial responses. However, further high-quality studies involving more participants are still needed to make firm conclusions on HIT effectiveness and feasibility compared to other types of exercise in this context.

基于工作场所的身体活动干预的短时高强度间歇运动：可行性和有效性的系统评价

背景

工作场所锻炼干预措施显示出良好的效果，但据报道，缺乏时间往往是参与的障碍。为了克服这个问题，一些研究尝试在工作场所实施短期高强度间歇训练（HIT）。

目标

本系统评价的目的是探讨工作场所环境中 HIT 干预措施的可行性和有效性。

数据源

在 PubMed 和 SPORTDiscus 中进行了系统的文献检索，以识别与工作场所中的 HIT 相关的文章。

学习资格标准

仅包括由工作场所内的 HIT 计划组成并测试至少一项生理、心理或工作相关结果的干预措施。

结果

七项研究（317 名参与者）符合纳入标准。HIT 干预持续 6-12 周，频率为每周 2-4 次，每次持续 8-30 分钟。四项研究对可行性进行了定性调查，报告了 HIT 时间吸引力、个人强度驱动的能力感以及提高锻炼意愿的关键积极方面；五项研究报告的依从率 > 80%。据报道，心肺和肌肉健康改善的效果从小到大。据报告，血液参数和健康相关生活质量的影响大小为中小。
