No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Exercise increases energy expenditure and impacts appetite and energy intake. Some appetite-related hormones such as oxyntomodulin suppress appetite whilst other hormones such as ghrelin stimulate appetite. This study will investigate whether acute continuous walking/jogging influences these hormone concentrations, and whether exercise-induced changes in the hormones correlate with perceptions of appetite, nutritional intake and brain activity in individuals varying in weight status.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Acute continuous exercise

Exercise, which will involve 60 minutes of brisk walking, or jogging, at 60% of peak oxygen uptake. Participants will be asked to wear a face mask, which will measure their oxygen consumption during the exercise session.
