Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Treadmill Test

Measurement of whole-body fitness level. Walking or running on a treadmill and breathing into a machine that measures oxygen level during test. Heart rhythm is continuously monitored during exercise using an electrocardiogram (ECG).

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Strength Test

Measure the strength of leg muscles by kicking against a machine with resistance.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry

Body composition measurement.

PROCEDURE

Muscle Biopsy

Obtain a small piece of muscles from the upper part of the legs

PROCEDURE

Fat Biopsy

Fat sample taken from abdomen

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Resting Energy Expenditure

Measured by indirect calorimetry. Measures how much energy the body uses at rest by placing a special plastic dome over the head while resting quietly for 30 minutes. Measures oxygen breathed in and carbon dioxide breathed out.
