High-intensity interval training dose and cardiorespiratory fitness in coronary artery disease: a systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis
HIIT effectively improves cardiorespiratory fitness in CAD patients, with consistent benefits across various baseline fitness levels. The identified optimal dose (approximately 620 MET-min/week) supports personalized exercise prescription, particularly for populations with motivational or time-related barriers to sustained exercise adherence.
