HIIT for heart health in school-age kids
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) program can improve heart health and reduce risk factors like high blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure in school-age children. It's for children who have at least one of these problems and are not already doing intense exercise.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
