Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Atherosclerosis; Metabolic Syndrome

• Registration Number: NCT03697382
• Lead Sponsor: University of Texas at Austin

Brief Summary

Reduced ambulatory activity has been shown to effect the response to a high fat tolerance test (HFTT) after acute exercise. This study will evaluate the effect of varying levels of daily ambulation on response to a HFTT after an acute aerobic exercise bout.
