Positive energy balance
Subjects will consume over a 24 hour period 33% more calories than they require to meet their energy demands.
Energy balance with exercise
Subjects will consume over a 24 hour period 33% more calories than they require to meet their energy demands but will perform 2 hours of exercise that will be sufficient to burn off the excess calories consumed resulting in subjects being in net energy balance.
Negative energy balance
Subjects will consume over a 24 h period only 66% of the calories required to meet their energy demands such that they will be in a net negative calorie balance in this trial.
Negative energy balance with exercise
Subjects will consume over a 24 hour period the same amount of calories as ingested in the isocaloric trial but will also perform 2 hours of exercise that will be sufficient to burn off a third of the calories they consumed during this day resulting in subjects being in net negative energy balance in this trial
