Participants will attend one visit lasting approximately 3-4 hours on a single day or split over multiple visits to complete all measures. Participants will first be asked to provide written informed consent for the study. Participants' anthropometric measures (waist-to-hip ratio, height and weight, hip and waist circumference and left arm circumference and resting blood pressures will then be taken. After this, the participants will undergo cardiopulmonary exercise testing, followed by magnetic resonance imaging, echocardiography, retinal imaging and vascular imaging of the ear. The study visit will conclude with participants being provided with a wrist-worn physical activity monitor to wear for 7-9 days following the visit. These monitors will provide objective measures of physical activity while people go about their normal activities.
