TL;DR Summary

Aquatic High Intensity Interval Training (AHIIT) has been found to improve exercise capacity in adults with chronic conditions such as diabetes and arthritis, similar to land-based training (LBHIIT). Exercising in water can relieve pressure on joints, allowing for movements that may be difficult on land. However, there is conflicting evidence on the physiological benefits of AHIIT. AHIIT may be a safe and valuable alternative for individuals unable to perform LBHIIT, providing an effective option for cross-training and high-intensity workouts. Future research should explore the link between exercise capacity and patient outcomes, as well as barriers to high-intensity training in different populations.
