Fasting

Participants (Dance for PD, in-person only) will engage in one of their routine weekly dance sessions while a portable indirect calorimeter is used for energy expenditure analysis. Before this session, participants will be asked to fast for at least 4-hours. In this way, participants in this study arm will engage in a self-controlled study design wherein they complete a 4-hour fast before engaging in an oxygen uptake assessment during their routine dance classes. During the 4-hour fasting period, participants will be asked to refrain from eating any food and drinking any beverages except for water.
