Abstract：Sarcopenia,a degenerative disease of skeletal muscle closely associated with aging,severely affects people's quality of life and imposes a significant economic burden on society.In the past,the exercise prescriptions for sarcopenia were resistance exercise and moderate-intensity continuous training.High-intensity interval training(HIIT),as an emerging trend in exercise,has been gradually applied in the rehabilitation of various chronic diseases due to its short-duration and high-efficiency advantages.In this review,we focus on recent research regarding the application of HIIT in the treatment of sarcopenia.By analyzing recent literature,we elucidate the impact of HIIT on muscle mass,strength,and physical function in patients with sarcopenia,while also exploring its mechanisms of action and potential advantages,so as to provide a reference for further research and clinical application in this field.
