Abstract :
Reguler exercise and physical activity can
reduce the risk of chronic illness and death while also
improving body composition and cardiorespiratory
performance. Compared to conventional training
approaches, higj intensity interval training is an effective
and time-saving training strategy to improve fitness on
young adults. On the other hand, little is known about
how they affect cognitive function. As of right now, there
are no recommendations for physical activities that
enhance cognitive function. Thus, the purpose of this
research was to ascertain how HIIT affected young adults
who were sedentary in terms of cognitive function. The
method of this study used an experimental method on 20
sedentary young adults. Samples were divided into two
groups, the control group and the HIIT group. HIIT
sessions consisted of intervals of 60 second work at 85%
HRmax and 120 second interval period at 40% HRmax,
three times/wk for four weeks. Cognitive function was
measured using the stroop task test. The results showed
that there were a significant increase in cognitive function
in the HIIT group (p=0.00). There were a significant
difference in cognitive function between the HIIT and the
control group (p=0.00). In conclusion, HIIT over four
weeks can increase cognitive function in sedentary young
adults.
