Sitting + moderate intensity breaks

Participants will be followed in a randomized crossover trial undertaken at Faculty of Human Kinetics between April and August 2019. Participants will attend to the laboratory on twelve separate occasions: visit 1 (day 1), baseline assessments for body composition; visit 2 (day 2), cardiorespiratory fitness assessment; visit 3 (day 3), OGTT and the first randomized experimental protocol; visit 4 (day 4), follow-up OGTT; visit 5 (4-6 days after the first experimental protocol), OGTT and the remaining experimental protocol; visit 6 (day following the previous experimental protocol), follow-up OGTT. An additional 6 visits will be performed following the same rational, after a 2-week period of detraining, where participants will be instructed to refrain from structured exercise. The follow-up assessments for body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness will be accomplished after the protocols.
