简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of obesity on cardiovascular responses during various breathing maneuvers.
详细描述
Adults with higher body mass can have trouble breathing during exercise, which could be due to high respiratory muscle workloads. These breathing muscles can require a lot of energy, which takes away energy from other (e.g., leg) muscles. Participating in this study will help us understand how the heart and blood vessels respond during brief exercise and during various breathing maneuvers.
