Uses exercise testing to study health in a biobank
This study builds a biobank (a library of health samples and data) using people who can do difficult exercise. It aims to understand how the body works by collecting physical measurements, which may help future research and treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can safely do fatiguing (very tiring) exercise during testing
- You do not have severe physical or mental challenges that would stop testing
- Your doctor does not think a long-term health condition makes the study unsafe for you
- You are not taking prescription medicines that your doctor feels would rule you out

This study looks at how endurance exercise changes fat cells in the body. It may help understand how exercise benefits weight-related health.
This study is about doing a breathing-and-heart performance test while you exercise to better understand how your body uses energy. You may join if you’re referred for this type of test and can safely complete it.
This study looks at different markers of fitness in your blood and body. You will do a maximal exercise test on a bike or treadmill, give a blood sample, and fill out some questionnaires to help researchers understand overall health.
This study builds a database by having healthy, trained volunteers do maximal effort physical tests while measuring how the body responds. It may help researchers better understand exercise performance and safety, though you’re likely not receiving a treatment for an illness.
This study builds a “biobank,” which is a collection of blood and related samples, to support future research on heart and metabolic (sugar/body-fat) conditions. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and improve future prevention and treatments.
This study checks how well people can exercise using a detailed exercise test, sometimes with breathing and heart measurements. It may help researchers understand differences in exercise ability across different health conditions and overall health.
