Résumé
Interval aerobic training programs with active recovery bouts (IATP-R) are reported as being more adapted to seniors while improving cardiorespiratory and endurance parameters. Report of benefits on vascular function is still limited. To measure the impact of IATP-R on vascular function among seniors. Sedentary volunteers (≥70 years of age) were randomly assigned to either IATP-R (n = 30) or control group (n = 30). The IATP-R consisted of 2 weekly sessions of 30-min (6 × 4-min at first ventilatory threshold (VT Resulting from a planned interim analysis, IATP-R improved SBP (IATP-R: from 133.7 ± 9.8 to 122.6 ± 9.4 mmHg vs. Controls: from 128.9 ± 12.5 to 132.6 ± 14.7 mmHg), DBP (IATP-R: from 80.2 ± 7.0 to 74.1 ± 6.7 mmHg vs. Controls: from 77.1 ± 6.8 to 80.3 ± 7.5 mmHg), and FMD (IATP-R: from 6.7 ± 2.0 to 7.5 ± 2.7% vs. Controls: from 7.9 ± 2.7 to 7.5 ± 2.5%). No significant impact on PWV was measured. Although these findings resulted from an interim analysis, IATP-R might be effective in regulating BP and improving endothelial function among sedentary seniors.

BACKGROUND
Interval aerobic training programs with active recovery bouts (IATP-R) are reported as being more adapted to seniors while improving cardiorespiratory and endurance parameters. Report of benefits on vascular function is still limited.
PURPOSE
To measure the impact of IATP-R on vascular function among seniors.
METHODS
Sedentary volunteers (≥70 years of age) were randomly assigned to either IATP-R (n = 30) or control group (n = 30). The IATP-R consisted of 2 weekly sessions of 30-min (6 × 4-min at first ventilatory threshold (VT
RESULTS
Resulting from a planned interim analysis, IATP-R improved SBP (IATP-R: from 133.7 ± 9.8 to 122.6 ± 9.4 mmHg vs. Controls: from 128.9 ± 12.5 to 132.6 ± 14.7 mmHg), DBP (IATP-R: from 80.2 ± 7.0 to 74.1 ± 6.7 mmHg vs. Controls: from 77.1 ± 6.8 to 80.3 ± 7.5 mmHg), and FMD (IATP-R: from 6.7 ± 2.0 to 7.5 ± 2.7% vs. Controls: from 7.9 ± 2.7 to 7.5 ± 2.5%). No significant impact on PWV was measured.
CONCLUSION
Although these findings resulted from an interim analysis, IATP-R might be effective in regulating BP and improving endothelial function among sedentary seniors.
