Cardiometabolic Effects of Aerobic Exercise Plus Breaking Sitting

Volunteers, whose fasting blood samples are drawn and who eat a standard breakfast, will perform a 30-minute walking exercise on a treadmill at 40-45% of their heart rate reserve. They will then sit in the chair for 6.5 hours. While seated, volunteers will be asked not to leave their seats except to use the toilet. Volunteers will be able to read and use computers and phones while sitting. Venous and capillary blood samples will be drawn at regular intervals and their blood pressures will be measured.

Volunteers, whose fasting blood samples are drawn and who eat a standard breakfast, will perform a 30-minute walking exercise on a treadmill at 40-45% of their heart rate reserve. They will then interrupt sitting with 2-minute walks at 35-40% of their heart rate reserve every 30 minutes for 6.5 hours after moderate-intensity aerobic exercise. They will make a twelve interruptions throughout 6.5 hours period and will have a total of 24 minutes of interruption throughout the intervention. While seated, volunteers will be asked not to leave their seats except to use the toilet. Volunteers will be able to read and use computers and phones while sitting. Venous and capillary blood samples will be drawn at regular intervals and their blood pressures will be measured.

Volunteers, whose fasting blood samples are drawn and who eat a standard breakfast, will perform a 30-minute walking exercise on a treadmill at 40-45% of their heart rate reserve. They will then interrupt sitting with 4-minute walks at 35-40% of their heart rate reserve every 1 hour for 6.5 hours after moderate-intensity aerobic exercise. They will make six interruptions throughout 6.5 hours period and will have a total of 24 minutes of interruption throughout the intervention. While seated, volunteers will be asked not to leave their seats except to use the toilet. Volunteers will be able to read and use computers and phones while sitting. Venous and capillary blood samples will be drawn at regular intervals and their blood pressures will be measured.

Volunteers, whose fasting blood samples are drawn and who eat a standard breakfast, will perform a 30-minute walking exercise on a treadmill at 40-45% of their heart rate reserve. They will then interrupt sitting with 8-minute walks at 35-40% of their heart rate reserve every 2 hour for 6.5 hours after moderate-intensity aerobic exercise. They will make six interruptions throughout 6.5 hours period and will have a total of 24 minutes of interruption throughout the intervention. While seated, volunteers will be asked not to leave their seats except to use the toilet. Volunteers will be able to read and use computers and phones while sitting.
