Exercise arrests aging

In high-intensity interval training (HIIT), exercisers perform short bursts of intense aerobic activity during a period of more moderate exercise —and this produces a highly efficient counteraction to the aging process. The National Institutes of Health funded the study, led by Sreekumaran Nair of the Mayo Clinic. It included a group of younger volunteers age 18 to 30 years and a group of older volunteers age 65 to 80 years. Participants we re also put into mixed age groups and assigned different supervised exercise training programs for 3 months.
