Summary: The objective of this study was to compare the acute psychophysiological responses
(i.e., affective response, enjoyment and mood) between high-intensity interval training
with elastic resistance (EL-HIIT) vs. high-intensity treadmill interval training (HIIT)
in healthy adults. Eighteen healthy adults (26.6 ± 3.9 years) performed randomized
HIIT and EL-HIIT sessions. Sessions were prescribed 10 × 1 min at ~85%
V

O2max
separated by 1 min interval, prescribed by specific cardiopulmonary tests. The
affective response was assessed before, at the end of each effort and 10 min after. The
mood profile was assessed before and after each session, and enjoyment was assessed
only at the end of the sessions. A two-way ANOVA for repeated measures was applied
followed by Tukey's post hoc test to compare affective response and mood between
HIIT and EL-HIIT. The paired t test was used to evaluate enjoyment. Results: EL-
HIIT showed a less positive affective response in efforts 5, 6, 7 and 10 during the
session compared to HIIT (p<0.05). The affective response 10 min later was more
positive for EL-HIIT. Only EL-HIIT reduced the feeling of depression and mental
confusion compared to measures assessed before the session (p<0.05). Still, there was
no difference in mood states comparing EL-HIIT and HIIT. Conclusion: An EL-HIIT
session provides positive psychophysiological responses similar to HIIT after exercise.
However, EL-HIIT presents a more pronounced decline in the affective response
during the session compared to HIIT.
