Brief Summary

In the present study, we seek to elucidate the effects of aerobic exercise on fecal microbiota following the aforementioned no exercise control group and two doses of aerobic exercise training (the exercise training spans \~24 wks) in a cross-sectional sample.

  • Gut Microbiota

    1 year

Study Arms (3)

No Exercise Control

NO INTERVENTION

Healthy Living Control Group

Aerobic Exercise Group

EXPERIMENTAL

8 kcal/kg of body weight/week (KKW) (\~900 kcal/wk)

Behavioral: Aerobic Exercise

Aerobic Exercise Group 2

EXPERIMENTAL

20 KKW (\~2250 kcal/wk)

Behavioral: Aerobic Exercise

Interventions

The exercise expenditure goals were calculated by multiplying the participants' body weight by the exercise dose (8 or 20 KKW) divided by the number of sessions (3-5 sessions/wk). The speed and grade were monitored and documented to keep participant heart rate at 65-85% of tested VO2 peak and entered into ACSM equations for energy expenditure.
