Sex: FEMALE
Minimum age (years): 25
Maximum age (years): 55
Standard ages: ADULT
Accepts healthy volunteers: yes
Allocation: NA
Intervention model: SINGLE_GROUP
Intervention model description: All subjects will participate in an exercise intervention consisting of sprint interval training and resistance training.
Primary purpose: TREATMENT

Brief summary: The purpose of this study is to examine the physiological and psychological effects of a sprint interval and resistance training intervention on females.

Detailed description: Females aged 20-65 will attend 10 weeks of exercise training consisting of sprint interval training and resistance training for 30 sessions. We will examine changes in body composition, blood panel (fasting glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides), strength (bench press and back squat), aerobic capacity and psychological parameters (hardiness, affect, enjoyment, perception and self-regulation). The effects will be measured acutely after the program and 6-months after the cessation of the program.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* This population consists of: females, aged 25-55, who are: sedentary (not reporting a regular schedule of exercise over the last 3 months), and able to start an exercise program (assessed by the PARQ+)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Females who are below age 25 or over age 55, who are currently exercising and have existing conditions that would exclude them from exercise.
