Brief Summary
The primary purpose of this study is to examine the effects of chronic exercise training and an acute session of exercise on key risk factors associated with Metabolic Syndrome (e.g., glucose tolerance, blood lipid profile, and blood pressure) and alterations in subcutaneous adipose tissue structure and metabolic function in overweight adults.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
PPARg mRNA expression
The study team will quantify the abundance of key adipogenic markers in adipose tissue biopsy samples
change from baseline at 1 hour post exercise
Cytokine abundance in adipose tissue
The study team will measure cytokine proteins in adipose tissue
change from baseline at 1 hour post exercise
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Total Cholesterol
change from baseline at 1 hour post exercise
Study Arms (1)
Exercise session
OTHERSubjects will exercise at a moderate intensity for 60 minutes. There are no different arms in this study.
Interventions
A blood sample and fat biopsy will be obtained before and after the 60 minute moderate exercise session. There is no drug or device intervention in this study.
