OTHER

Maximal oxygen consumption (V02 max)

Aerobic fitness will be determined by measuring V02 max during a stationary bicycle exercise test.

OTHER

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) imaging

Brown adipose tissue will be differentiated from white adipose tissue using fat fraction and T2\* relaxation time maps generated from a commercially available modified 6-point Dixon (mDixon) water-fat separation method.

OTHER

Muscle function testing

This test will be done on a machine called a Biodex. We will measure the speed at which subjects move resistance at different percentages of their peak strength.
