In patients with established CAD, a regression of atheroma volume was observed in those undergoing six months of supervised HIIT compared with patients following contemporary preventive guidelines. Our study indicates that high intensity interval training counteracts atherosclerotic coronary disease progression and reduces atheroma volume in residual coronary atheromatous plaques following PCI.
