Role of Fasted Exercise on Improving Cardiometabolic Health
Investigating the Role of Fasted Exercise on Improving Cardiometabolic Health; a Potential Mediatory Role of Sirtuins
Manchester Metropolitan University
30 participants
Mar 1, 2023
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The aim of this randomised control trial is to investigate the role of fasted exercise on cardiometabolic health. Participants will be assigned to one of three conditions, fasted exercise, fed exercise and control (no exercise). Participants in the exercise groups will complete four weeks of moderate intensity cycling exercise, three times per week, either in the fasted or fed state according to their group assignment. Experimental trials involving anthropometric and cardiometabolic disease risk factor measurements as well as metabolic responses to a subsequent meal ingestion following exercise will be compared pre-intervention and post intervention.
