The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of HUT in a University setting, in relation to implementation, volume, short and long term effects on the human physiology. The study is using retroactive data from a HUT class administered for a full semester totaling 24 workouts. 38 males and 169 females, N=207 participants from 6 different class sections with mean age of 21.39±4.90 years and attendance of 0.88±0.10 percent. Cardiovascular fitness and muscular strength and endurance were tested pre, mid and post training. One-way repeated measures MANOVA showed significant differences between Test 1 vs. Test 3 in all four dependent variables at (p0.05). Overall this study showed that this University HUT class improved cardiovascular fitness and muscular strength and endurance.
