Synopsis

The primary aim of this trial is to investigate the feasibility of high intensity interval training via virtual reality using dynamic difficulty adjustment through biofeedback for healthy participants, compared to a self-paced VR HIIT approach. This is to see if the DDA approach results in greater vigorous intensity attainment in the session. Feasibility will be assessed according to a priori criteria: recruitment capability, time in heart rate zones and participant acceptability. We hypothesise that using biofeedback for exercise intensity adjustment in VR will be feasible in a healthy population. If the hypotheses are supported, the proposed study will provide clinicians and researchers with valuable information about the delivery of VR exercise training in this cohort. The feasibility data will provide sample size calculation information for the construction of a larger clinical trial.
