BEHAVIORAL

Effects of Clothing

There will be two temperature conditions; warm temperature \[WT, 75°F (24°C)\] and cool temperature \[CT, 60°F (16°C)\]. During each condition, subjects will vary the amount of clothing they are wearing at specified times

BEHAVIORAL

Effects of Temperature

There will be two temperature conditions; warm temperature \[WT, 75°F (24°C)\] and cool temperature \[CT, 60°F (16°C)\]. During each condition, subjects will vary the amount of clothing they are wearing at specified times

BEHAVIORAL

Low Physical Activity

This will be a randomized study with two within subject conditions (high and low physical activity levels)

BEHAVIORAL

High Physical Activity

This will be a randomized study with two within subject conditions (high and low physical activity levels)

BEHAVIORAL

Direct calorimetry and doubly labeled water

TDEE will be measured simultaneously for 14 days using direct calorimetry and doubly labeled water. A heterogeneous sample of adult men and women in stable health will be studied.
