ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how exercise affects energy use and food choices in young adult men. Researchers want to find out if doing moderate to high-intensity exercise changes how much energy the body burns at rest (basal energy expenditure) and what types of food participants prefer to eat afterward. To do this, they will have participants undergo body composition tests and then either exercise for 30 minutes or not after a light breakfast. Throughout the study, researchers will measure how much food participants eat, their feelings of hunger, and various metabolic markers through blood tests.

To participate in this study, you must be a healthy male between the ages of 18 and 40, with a body mass index (BMI) of at least 18.5. However, individuals with certain health conditions, recent surgeries, or those taking long-term medications are not eligible. Participants can expect to spend some time at the lab, undergoing tests and exercises, and will receive insight into how exercise might influence their energy use and food preferences. This research could help us understand better ways to manage energy balance and obesity.
