Brief Summary

The participants will visit the laboratory on 3 occasions, once for a preliminary visit and a further two occasions to complete experimental trials in a randomised order. The experimental trials will consist of cycling under two conditions; HIIE-First followed by Continuous (Trial-A) or Continuous-First followed by HIIE (Trial-B). Participants will be asked to standardise their diet for 24-hours and complete an overnight fast prior to visiting the laboratory. Participants will then complete 60-min of cycling split throughout the day into two 30-min bouts, HIIE or continuous cycling before breakfast followed by a 3.5 hour rest period before completing their remaining 30-min HIIE or Continuous cycling before lunch. Each experimental trail will last approximately 8 hours and begin at 08:00am. Throughout the trial measurements of subjective feelings of appetite, gastric emptying rate, substrate utilisation and regular blood samples will be taken. Post-trial nutritional and well-being questionnaires will be collected at 24-h post. Study hypothesis

  1. 1.The order in which continuous and HIIE is undertaken will result in differences in gastric emptying rate after ingesting a semi-sold lunch?
  2. 2.Depending on which mode of exercise is undertaken first will result in different gastrointestinal hormone responses, metabolic responses and appetite responses throughout the trial day?
  3. 3.Will the order in which different modes of exercise, undertaken within the same day effect nutritional intake and well-being 24-h after both exercise bout have been completed?
  4. 4.Is substrate oxidation effected by the order in which multiple exercise bout of different modes are undertaken within the same day.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Change in gastric emptying rate over a 2-hour period

    Gastric emptying rate of a semi-solid meal will be measured using the 13C breath test.

    9 breath samples will be collected at pre-Lunch (315 minutes), 345, 360, 375, 390, 405, 420, 435 and 450 minutes. Which is every 15 minutes for a two-hour period post-lunch.

  • Changes in circulating levels of key gut hormones during the trial day

    Hormones will be collected from serum blood samples

    10 samples will be collected at 0 (baseline), 30, 75, 135, 195, 255, 285, 315, 390, 450 minutes (End of trial)

  • Changes in circulating levels of key metabolic markers during the trial day

    Serum blood samples will be collected to measure Metabolic markers ( Glucose, triglycerides, Cholesterol and Non-esterified fatty acids)

    10 samples will be collected at 0 (baseline), 30, 75, 135, 195, 255, 285, 315, 390, 450 minutes (End of trial)

  • Changes in substrate oxidation during the trial day

    Substrate oxidation will be measured using a breath-by breath gas analyser for a 15-minutes period during each measurement

    8 measurements of substrate oxidation will be taken at 0 (baseline), 30, 135, 195, 255, 285, 390, and 450 minutes (End of trial)

  • Changes in appetite using a visual analogue scales (VAS) questionnaire

    Visual analogue scales will be used to measure subjective sensations of appetite. The VAS was composed of 6 questions asking: "how hungry do you feel?" "How full do you feel?" "How much do you think you can eat?" "How satisfied do you feel?" " How nauseous do you feel?" and " How bloated do you feel?". Horizontal lines 100 mm in length were anchored with "I am not hungry at all to I have never been more hungry," "Not at all full to totally full," "nothing at all to a lot," "I am completely empty to I can't eat another bite" " Not at all nauseous to Very nauseous" and " Not at all bloated to Very Bloated" at 0 mm and 100 mm, respectively.

    10 VAS questionnaires will be completed at 0 (baseline), 30, 75, 135, 195, 255, 285, 315, 390, 450 minutes (End of trial)

  • Post trial energy intake

    24-hour post trial energy intake using weighed food intake dietary record

    24-hours post-trial total dietary intake

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Changes in well-being

    6 questionnaires will be completed; pre (0-minutes) and post first exercise bout (30-minutes), and pre (255-minutes) and post second exercise bout (285-minutes). End of the trial day (450-minutes), and 24-hours post-trial

  • Changes in perceived exertion

    Perceived exertion will be asked 12 times; 6 during the first 30-minutes exercise period ( 5, 10, 15. 20, 25 and 30-minutes) and a further 6 times during the second exercise period (5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30-minutes
