Effects of sprint interval training compared to high intensity interval training on repeated sprint capacity and sport-specific performance in college-aged male tennis players
While both protocols improved aerobic fitness, SIT demonstrated superior effectiveness in enhancing tennis-specific performance, particularly in repeated sprint ability and technical stability. These findings suggest that SIT might be a more time-efficient training strategy for improving sport-specific performance in tennis players.
