Interventions

Intervention1: high intensity interval training: The experimental group will follow a 22-minute HIIT protocol designed by (Andrade-Lara et al., 2023
Saphira et al., 2021) which will be demonstrated well by the therapist and will only be performed under supervision of the research team. Protocol has the following steps- a) 5-minute warm-up and is
for instance, sets one and three include jumping jacks and 20-meter sprints, while sets two and four consist of mountain climbers and high knees. d) A cool down period of 1 minute by slow paced walk
