No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will investigate the influence of increased sedentary time on long-term measures of muscle protein synthesis and metabolic health. The investigators will test the hypothesis that increased time spent in sedentary behaviours will lead to a reduction in long-term measures of muscle protein synthesis and compromised metabolic health.

Conditions

  • Sedentary Lifestyle

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

7 days of habitual physical activity followed by 7 days of reduced physical activity

Young, active participants will undergo a 7 day period of habitual physical activity followed by a 7 day period of step reduction and exercise cessation.
