The impact of a single bout of high intensity circuit training on myokines' concentrations and cognitive functions in women of different age

Following a single session of HICT the young group exhibited improved concentration and spatial memory, whereas in middle-aged women these functions were attenuated. A varied tendency was also observed in the levels of myokine IL-6 and cytokine IL-10. Vitamin D was covariate for changes in cognitive functions and myokines' levels after exercise. Its concentration modified the anti-inflammatory effect of HICT, expressed in decreasing HSP70.
