Harvey, M., Weston, K. L., Gray, W. K., O’Callaghan, A., Oates, L. L., Davidson, R., & Walker, R. W. (2019). High-intensity interval training in people with Parkinson’s disease: a randomized, controlled feasibility trial. Clinical Rehabilitation, 33(3

Objectives: To investigate whether people with Parkinson’s disease can exercise at a high-intensity across a 12-week intervention and to assess the impact of the intervention on cardiorespiratory fitness. Design: This is a randomized, controlled... Read More about High-intensity interval training in people with Parkinson’s disease: a randomized, controlled feasibility trial.

The effect of 12 weeks of combined upper- and lower-body high-intensity interval training on muscular and cardiorespiratory fitness in older adults (2018)
Journal Article
Hurst, C., Weston, K. L., & Weston, M. (2019). The effect of 12 weeks of combined upper- and lower-body high-intensity interval training on muscular and cardiorespiratory fitness in older adults. Aging clinical and experimental research, 31(5), 661-671. h

Background High-intensity interval training (HIT) can impact cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness simultaneously, yet protocols typically focus on lower-body exercise. For older adults however, performing activities of daily living requires upper-...

Perceptual and prefrontal cortex haemodynamic responses to high-intensity interval exercise with decreasing and increasing work-intensity in adolescents (2018)
Journal Article
Malik, A. A., Williams, C. A., Weston, K. L., & Barker, A. R. (2018). Perceptual and prefrontal cortex haemodynamic responses to high-intensity interval exercise with decreasing and increasing work-intensity in adolescents. International Journal of Psycho

Objectives Affect experienced during high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) is dependent on work-intensity, but the influence of increasing (low-to-high (L-H)) or decreasing (high-to-low (H-L)) work-intensity during HIIE remains unclear in adolesce...

Perceptual Responses to High- and Moderate-Intensity Interval Exercise in Adolescents (2018)
Journal Article
Malik, A. A., Williams, C. A., Weston, K. L., & Barker, A. R. (2018). Perceptual Responses to High- and Moderate-Intensity Interval Exercise in Adolescents. Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 50(5), 1021-1030. https://doi.org/10.1249/mss.0000000

Purpose Continuous high-intensity exercise is proposed to evoke unpleasant sensations as predicted by the dual-mode theory and may negatively impact on future exercise adherence. Previous studies support unpleasant sensations in affective responses... Read More about Perceptual Responses to High- and Moderate-Intensity Interval Exercise in Adolescents.
