Kickboxing HIIT study reveals protein changes in elite athletes
NCT ID NCT07449663
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how sport-specific high-intensity interval training (HIIT) changes certain proteins in the blood of elite kickboxers. Forty male athletes aged 18 to 30 with at least five years of training will be randomly assigned to either an eight-week HIIT program or their usual training. The goal is to see if HIIT affects levels of apelin and irisin, which are linked to how the body adapts to exercise. The results could help coaches design better training programs.
