Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Change in exercise-induced energy expenditure

    Exercise energy expenditure (kcal) will be measured using a portable indirect calorimetry system

    At pre-exercise, during, and post-exercise session (single bout lasting 30 and 45 seconds)

  • Change in excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC)

    EPOC (kcal) will be measured using a portable indirect calorimetry system

    At post-exercise session (single bout lasting 30 and 45 seconds)

  • Change in blood lactate concentration (BLa)

    BLa (mmol/L) concentration will be measured in a microphotometer with commercially available kits.

    At pre- and post-exercise session (single bout) at 3 minutes post-exercise

  • Change in heart rate

    Heart rate (bpm) will be measured with a wearable heart rate monitor

    At pre-exercise, during, and post-exercise session (single bout lasting 30 and 45 seconds)

  • Change in perceived exertion

    Rating of perceived exertion (RPE) will be measured with the Borg scale (0-10)

    At pre-exercise, during, and post-exercise session (single bout lasting 30 and 45 seconds)

Secondary Outcomes (13)

Study Arms (2)

Training

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in this arm will perform seven bodyweight training exercises (acute bout per exercise) at two different conditions (30 and 45 seconds).

Behavioral: TR-30Behavioral: TR-45

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Participants in this arm will receive no intervention.

Interventions

TR-30BEHAVIORAL

Bodyweight training exercises will be performed for 30 seconds and the training volume will be consisted of 1 repetition.

Training
TR-45BEHAVIORAL

Bodyweight training exercises will be performed for 45 seconds and the training volume will be consisted of 1 repetition.
