简要总结
This study is designed to test the effects of six 5 minute microbursts of physical activity spread across the day as compared to either a sedentary control condition or a single 30 minute bout of moderate intensity physical activity on cognitive function, self-reported energy levels, aspects of eating behavior and measures of metabolic health. The primary hypotheses are:
- Hourly 5 minute bouts of moderate intensity exercise during the day will increase afternoon cognitive function as compared to a no exercise condition.
- Hourly 5 minute bouts of moderate intensity exercise during the day will increase afternoon cognitive function more than a single 30 minute AM bout.
Secondary exploratory hypotheses include
- Hourly 5 minute bouts of moderate intensity exercise during the day will increase self-reported energy levels, reduce orexigenic appetitive measures and improve measures of metabolic health as compared to a no exercise condition.
- Hourly 5 minute bouts of moderate intensity exercise during the day will increase self-reported energy levels, reduce orexigenic appetitive measures and improve measures of metabolic health more than a single 30 minute AM bout.

研究组 & 干预措施
Uninterrupted sitting
Subjects remained seated all day except to rise from the chair to void.
Sitting + one bout of activity
Subjects remained seated all day, except to rise from the chair to void, and to perform one bout of 30-minutes moderate-intensity walking. Physical activity was performed at 0800, after measures of vitals and basal questionnaire assessments, but before breakfast.
干预措施: physical activity (Behavioral)
Sitting + microbursts of activity
Subjects rose from the seated position every hour for 6-hours from 0910 to 1430 to complete 5-minute bouts of moderate-intensity walking, yielding a total activity time of 30-minutes.
干预措施: physical activity (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Cognitive function
时间窗: During each of the three separate study days cognitive function is measured at (in minutes): T410
The flanker task is used to measure cognitive function
Change in Cognitive Function
时间窗: During each of the three separate study days cognitive function is measured at (in minutes): T425
After the Flanker task, the Comprehensive Trail Making Test is used to measure cognitive function during each study day.
Change in Energy and Mood level
时间窗: During each of the three separate study days energy and mood levels are assessed at (in minutes): T0, T40, T70, T80, T90, T120, T140, T230, T350, T390, T400, T405, T410, and T435
Self-perceived energy and mood were measured by using visual analogue scales (VAS) as described below at baseline.
